Now, the faith-based, nonprofit integrated health system is extending its care to other areas of the island with the acquisition of Urgent Care Hawai\u2018i.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is something we\u2019re really excited about,\u201d shares Ryan Ashlock, president of Adventist Health Castle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(One reason is) Castle does not have urgent care services, so by acquiring Urgent Care Hawai\u2018i, we now can complete the continuum of care by providing urgent care services. Secondly, we had a goal of expanding our services both here on the Windward side and even beyond \u2026 We are just really excited to be able to take the outstanding people and the care that we provide here at Castle to new communities for us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnother reason why we\u2019re excited about having the Urgent Care Hawai\u2018i team join Castle is it\u2019s an extremely innovative group. They\u2019ve done an outstanding job navigating through this pandemic and really keeping themselves relevant. We are glad to have them here to bring their innovation spirit into our broader organization and really look at how we can improve and expand the urgent care services that they\u2019ve historically provided.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_97417\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adventisthealth.org\/castle\/?utm_source=opi-mw&amp;utm_medium=native&amp;utm_campaign=apictureofhealth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-97417\" src=\"https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/mw-cover-122221-adventist-health-lt010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"631\" class=\"size-full wp-image-97417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/mw-cover-122221-adventist-health-lt010.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/mw-cover-122221-adventist-health-lt010.jpg?resize=450,355 450w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/mw-cover-122221-adventist-health-lt010.jpg?resize=768,606 768w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/mw-cover-122221-adventist-health-lt010.jpg?resize=335,264 335w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-97417\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(From right) Ryan Ashlock, president of Adventist Health Castle, leads a group of talented health care professionals at the medical center. They include Brandon Tobias, medical assistant, and Stephanie Tenoso, lead patient access representative. Photo by Lawrence Tabudlo<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Currently, there are three active Urgent Care Hawai\u2018i locations: Kailua (660 Kailua Road), Pearl City (1245 Kuala St.) and Kapolei (890 Kamokila Blvd.). A fourth location in Waik\u012bk\u012b\/Ala Moana (1860 Ala Moana Blvd.) is temporarily closed primarily because of the reduction in tourism. The state-of-the-art facilities are open to anyone (you do not need to be a Castle patient), walk-ins are welcome and almost all insurance types are accepted. Services offered include immediate infant, pediatric, adult and geriatric care; basic laboratory, X-ray and telehealth services; occupational medicine and COVID-19 testing. With the added urgent care centers, patients now have more options and typically quicker access to care than at an emergency room.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to make sure our ED (emergency department) is kept available for those that are experiencing a more traumatic injury,\u201d notes Ashlock, \u201cand keep some of the things like colds, flu, sore throat, minor scrapes and cuts, that are more appropriate to be in an urgent care environment, and frankly it\u2019s more cost effective for a community member to be in an urgent care than it is to be in a hospital environment. As you might expect, a hospital is a little bit more expensive be cause of the variety of care that we have to be ready to provide, that\u2019s not as true in an urgent care setting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we move into this world of population health and health care, we\u2019re all really focused on how do we reduce the total cost of care? We want to make sure patients are being cared for in the right setting and previously we didn\u2019t have urgent care services, so we weren\u2019t able to refer patients but now we do. It\u2019s mutually beneficial because it\u2019s more cost effective for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Castle\u2019s Rich History<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Adventist Health Castle, a full-service medical center offering a wide range of inpatient, outpatient and home-based services, opened on Jan. 16, 1963, as Castle Memorial Hospital with 72 beds and 14 bassinets. However, the groundwork began much earlier when a small community group came together and launched a campaign in 1953 to establish a medical center in Windward O\u2018ahu. According to Ashlock, there was no health care on the Windward side in the 1950s, only part-time ambulance service from 1 to 9 p.m. Friday through Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a smaller community certainly at that time but driving over the old Pali Highway as I understand it was quite the drive and not an easy one,\u201d he says. \u201cWhenever there was a medical issue that came up, there were many times where physicians that lived on this side of the island had to throw them into their car and take them over to Queen\u2019s or St. Francis.<\/p>\n<p>Because of that, the community that was growing really wanted to ensure there was access to healthcare easily and quickly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(During that time) there were two events that happened \u2014 one was the roof caved in on five workmen at the Cornet building in Kailua and they had to then be taken via Dr. Robert Chung\u2019s car \u2026 then just a month later, there was a 2-year-old girl that choked on a pill, and if there had been a hospital here, she may have survived. So, at that point really, enough was enough, and in December 1959, the state Board of Health approved the rezoning, and federal funds necessary to build the hospital were freed up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ashlock lists Chung and Carolyn Rankin as the medical center\u2019s major proponents, and notes the support received from Harold K.L. Castle, who donated the 10 acres of land that Adventist Health Castle sits on today; the Seventh-day Adventist Church, which offered $600,000 toward construction; and community contributions of $170,000. In 1983, the hospital changed its name to Castle Medical Center, and today, Adventist Health Castle is a 160-bed facility with more than 1,000 employees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I always tell our leadership team and our associates is that we need to recognize the hard work that our community did to get this hospital here and, as a result, we have a responsibility and a commitment to deliver back really high-quality, safe patient care to our community,\u201d says Ashlock.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_97419\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adventisthealth.org\/castle\/?utm_source=opi-mw&amp;utm_medium=native&amp;utm_campaign=apictureofhealth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-97419\" src=\"https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0039.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"522\" class=\"size-full wp-image-97419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0039.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0039.jpg?resize=450,294 450w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0039.jpg?resize=768,501 768w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0039.jpg?resize=335,219 335w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-97419\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(From left) Jeanette Swanson, Kimalar Carroll, Ryan Ashlock, Donna Schmidt, Derek Dickard and Heidar Thordarson smile for a photo at the blessing of Adventist Health Castle\u2019s Pearl City urgent care, located at 1245 Kuala St. Photo courtesy Adventist Health Castle<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Award-winning Care<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This past spring, Adventist Health Castle received an \u2018A\u2019 Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade, and for the ninth consecutive year, was recognized by Health-grades for being in the top 10% nationally for patient experience. There\u2019s also its birth center, which, for two years in a row, was listed on <em>Newsweek<\/em>\u2019s Best Maternity Hospitals. And in 2017, the organization was recognized with the prestigious Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the time, we were one of only 32 U.S. hospitals to get (the Malcolm Baldrige), and still are the only organization in Hawai\u2018i to receive this award,\u201d says Ashlock. \u201cWe\u2019re really just proud of the achievements we\u2019ve been able to get.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the things that really makes our organization unique, I believe, is our people \u2026 from the moment you\u2019re greeted until the moment you leave, I think you really notice that our people set us apart. We\u2019re focused on whole person health and committed to having the most highly trained, empathetic staff shining through at every level of our organization.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>One Paradise To Another<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prior to joining Castle, Ashlock was the finance officer at Adventist Health Feather River and the executive in charge during the Camp Fire evacuation, restoration and recovery efforts in 2018. He moved to Hawai\u2018i three years ago and was chief operating officer before being named president of Adventist Health Castle in April.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe entire town of Paradise was pretty much destroyed in that fire including a good amount of our hospital there \u2026 I was looking for new opportunities and it just so happened that there was an opportunity out here in Hawai\u2018i and somehow my wife (Elle) was open to the idea,\u201d remembers Ashlock, who was born and raised in Glendale, California. \u201cHere we are a few years later (along with their 3-year-old daughter Emmy) and couldn\u2019t be happier. We\u2019ve really enjoyed living in Hawai\u2018i.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_97420\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adventisthealth.org\/castle\/?utm_source=opi-mw&amp;utm_medium=native&amp;utm_campaign=apictureofhealth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-97420\" src=\"https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0045.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"593\" class=\"size-full wp-image-97420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0045.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0045.jpg?resize=450,334 450w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0045.jpg?resize=768,569 768w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0045.jpg?resize=72,54 72w, https:\/\/hawaii.carpentermediagroup.com\/midweekpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2021\/12\/urgentcarepearlcityhawaii_0045.jpg?resize=335,248 335w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-97420\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Patients of Adventist Health Castle can expect state-of-the-art facilities and well-rounded care.

So, if you can\u2019t beat them, you might as well join them and that\u2019s what I decided to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As for highlights to look forward to in the future at Adventist Health Castle, Ashlock says they plan to expand its operating room capability, adding two operating rooms and a procedure room next summer on top of its existing four operating rooms. They also are in the early stages of starting a cardiac electrophysiology service, which is currently not provided on the Windward side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlso, the biggest one that\u2019s going on right now is something called Hawai\u2018i Health Network,\u201d adds Ashlock. \u201cIt\u2019s a clinically integrated network and the purpose of a clinically integrated network is to bring together health care providers into a partnership that\u2019s focused on driving down the total cost of care and increasing quality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are other clinically integrated networks that exist \u2026 ours is unique, though, in a way in which we\u2019re partnering with independent physicians versus employing all of our physicians \u2026 a high number of physicians in the state of Hawai\u2018i want to remain independent and as part of the clinically integrated network and Hawai\u2018i Health Network. We really want to be able to support those independent physicians, make them successful and help them focus on providing patient care, which is what they really went to medical school for.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re just thrilled to be able to partner with some of these other independent physician organizations across the state to help them better serve their patients and together really improve the quality of the community that we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"native-cta btn btn--secondary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.adventisthealth.org\/castle\/?utm_source=opi-mw&amp;utm_medium=native&amp;utm_campaign=apictureofhealth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LEARN MORE<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"custom_byline\"><em>This is a paid advertisement.
