| In 1884, Mother Marianne Cope and the Sisters of St. Francis came to
Maui and with a royal bequest from Queen Kapiolani, established Malulani
Hospital in Wailuku, next to the site of St. Anthony's Church. Malulani
was the first hospital established on Maui and for over 70 years it
served as the community hospital for Wailuku. Malulani means "under the
shelter or protection of heaven," a fitting name and a tribute to the
origins of the hospital via the work of the Sisters and the enabling
grant from the alii. In 1952, Central Maui Memorial Hospital was
established and subsequently Malulani and the other plantation hospitals
in Lahaina, Puunene and Paia were closed.
Malulani Health and Medical Center will be created in honor of this
legacy, and will reflect the original mission of the community hospital,
namely serving the people of Maui with the best possible healthcare
available and with a true spirit of caring for the community.

 The Malulani Logo is an outline of the island of Maui with blue sky over
it, befitting the meaning of Malulani-- "Under the Shelter or Protection
of Heaven." The complete logo is a circle, signifying wholeness and
health, and the wavy form of the blue sky on the white background echoes
the Yang and Yin symbol, a reference to the model of integrated care at
Malulani that will feature a blend of the best western, asian,
complementary and alternative medicine traditions. |
