Elsewhere on FR today, several posters have pointed out that the Nordyke twins' long-form BC (which has always been held up as the gold standard for an authentic Hawaiian long-form BC) uses the same hospital name. So no.
I must admit that I was surprised to see “caucasian” on the Nordyke BC’s. Hawaiians, for whatever reason are obssessed with race, to the point where they have racial advantages for “native Hawaiians” being admitted to schools. In any other state this would never be tolerated. It would be considered racism. But the Hawaiians get a pass on this issue.
This is the story of two hospitals: Kauikeolani Children's Hospital and Kapi‘olani Maternity Home.
Concerned about the welfare of Hawaii's mothers, Queen Kapi‘olani held luau and bazaars to raise the $8,000 needed to open Kapi‘olani Maternity Home in 1890. She endowed her legacy with “Kulia i ka nu‘u” or “Strive for the highest.”
In 1908, Albert and Emma Kauikeolani Wilcox donated $50,000 to start a children's hospital. The community, concerned that two of every seven infants in Hawai‘i did not live to see their first birthday, rallied to match the Wilcox's gift. A year later, Kauikeolani Children's Hospital opened.
The two hospitals joined in 1978 to become Kapi‘olani Medical Center for Women & Children. Staying true to its mission, the non-profit hospital has played a vital role in the health of Hawaii's women, children and adolescents. It is staffed with highly skilled, compassionate physicians and nurses, dedicated to providing the finest care for Hawaii's families:
