Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital: leading the way


Nursing Jobs By State

The Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital was created as a labor of love: in 1902, a young 10 year old girl of Hollister, CA, passed away, unable to receive proper care for her appendicitis, due to the absence of a hospital in the community. Five years later, with the opening of this hospital, her family and the whole community of Hollister were finally able to honor her memory while at the same time providing the community with a much needed hospital. For almost a century now, Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital has provided first class attention and medical technology for its patients.

Among the services provided by Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital, the program called Solutions stands out. Directed to the senior population, Solutions is a psychiatric program meant to address the issue of mental health in this sensitive population, through the help not only of a psychiatrist, but also a social worker, a psychologist and an occupational therapist. Additionally, Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital offers a new, one of the kind Ambulatory Surgery Center that not only takes advantage of the latest technology, but also offers all the necessary elements to make the experience a positive one: colonoscopy, cataract surgery, corneal transplant, pain blocks, ENT procedures, foot and ankle surgery, orthopedic procedures, gynecological surgery and hernia repair are available. In addition to that, many other services are available, including: Medical Social Services (to assist the patients and/or their families with their emotional issues), Dietary Services, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, Intravenous Therapy, Laboratory Services and finally, a highly rated Palliative Care Program, meant to assist both the patient and his/her family in the process of managing adequately the implications of a chronic/terminal illness.

Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital offers unparalleled technical and technological resources, complemented by the expertise and the dedication necessary to make it all work.
