RE:    GOV. MSG. NO. 795

 

 

 

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2020

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Higher Education, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 795, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of: 

 

Center for Nursing Advisory Board

 

G.M. No. 795

ROSE HATA,

for a term to expire 06-30-2024,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     Your Committee has reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Rose Hata for service on the Center for Nursing Advisory Board.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the reappointment of Rose Hata from the Hawai‘i State Center for Nursing and The Queen's Health Systems.

 

     Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Dr. Hata's background and dedication to serving the public qualify her to be reappointed to the Center for Nursing Advisory Board.  Dr. Hata has received a doctorate in nursing practice and has extensive teaching experience.  Dr. Hata has been an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse for the past decade and works in the intensive care unit.  Dr. Hata currently serves as Director of the Queen Emma Nursing Institute at the Queen's Medical Center, where she has been nominated for the Queen's Nursing Excellence Award for three consecutive years, from 2011 to 2013.  Your Committee finds that Dr. Hata is presently serving as a member of the Center for Nursing Advisory Board and her knowledge and experience continues to enhance the effectiveness of the Board.  Your Committee therefore recommends that Dr. Hata be reappointed to the Center for Nursing Advisory Board based on her background, knowledge, and desire to contribute to the community.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Higher Education that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Higher Education,
