Go to the HawCC web page to check out what the college offers. Be sure to look at the information on Hilo and the Big Island.
 

The multicultural mix of the Big Island population creates unique learning experiences. Students in both the Registered Nurse and Practical Nurse programs have created transcultural web pages describing the health practices of some of the cultures found on this island. The focus of the RN student pages is maternal/child health, while the PN student pages cover health beliefs through the life-span.
