 COMMUNITY SERVICE & WELLNESS OUTREACH
 COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Priorities for HOI, with respect to areas of community service and wellness outreach, continue to focus on overcoming arthritis and osteoporosis and providing education on musculoskeletal care.
Preventative Measures – HOI participates in Own the Bone®, an American Orthopaedic Association program designed to reduce the incidence of fragility fractures and positively impact osteoporosis treatment.
Health Education – HOI provides public school presentations, osteoporosis community lectures, and web-based musculoskeletal education. Sponsorship of the “Doctor in the Dugout” radio program also offers enlightening information for better health and physical performance.
Wellness Initiatives – HOI contributes in-kind support to the Irvine Public School Foundation and the Orange County Walk to Cure Arthritis fundraiser. It also offers weight management counseling, an important strategy for relieving pressure on joints; and provides funding for local athletic trainers.
Access to Care – To address the need of the underserved in the community, HOI supports the work of the La Amistad de Jose Family Health Center and Share Our Selves (SOS) health clinics.
