From the moment you arrive, you are treated with the utmost respect. People living with dementia really need their self-esteem because there's part of them that realizes that he can't remember things that just happened. both my mother-in-law and my uncle were very hesitant to go to a daycare. I drop them off at around 9 AM and pick them up just after lunch. I figured that it would be too long of a day to keep from eight hours. Well, I was wrong. They both did not want to leave. They quickly made friends and clearly did not want to leave at all. This is a Friday afternoon. On Saturday my mother-in-law called me asking when am I picking her up to take her to day care. LOL. Besides activities, like current events, sing-along, seating exercise, And special games like balloon volleyball, hangman, Wii golf, and Wii bowling. they also played blackjack and do puzzles. But the best thing about Live Well at Iwilei is hands down the food! do you see this center is run by Kahala Nui. The chef is amazing. The clients dying on some fantastic food. During special holidays like this past Chinese new year, the clients get to partake in the lion dance then eat scrumptious Chinese food like dim sum, fried noodles, pork hash, and rice cake. The same goes for Obon season. They have sushi, noodles, more Chico chicken and many more. I would highly recommend this place for your loved ones. If you were looking for just a half a day or a full day of day care give them a call. Lynn Wong the manager there will make you feel right at home and will put your love ones at ease.

They give my mom shower every day we drop her off. It is something that other day care can't do.read more

Nā Kūpuna Makamae: "The Beloved Seniors"…read more Thanks to fellow Yelper, Jessica P, for pointing out this newly opened senior center located in the former Kaka'ako pumping station. This bold stone former public works building has the distinction of being designed by the same architect of the luxurious Moana Hotel (The First Lady of Waikīkī), Oliver G. Traphagen. The Community Center is open weekdays only from 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM. They do offer services and programs dedicated to the seniors, their families and community. They feature class programs which one can sign up through annual membership of NKM (Nā Kūpuna Makamae) and classes are held on Tuesday through Friday. They offer classes such as Hawaiian Language, Culture & Literture, Tai Chi for Arthritis & Fall Prevention, Lauhala Weaving, Qigong Mindful Training, Pua Culture/Lei Making, Hanafuda, Hula and Yoga & Sound Bath. They offer programs to acquaint the elderly with the digital age so they can overcome their "fears" or hesitancy to learning something new. There are programs geared for the more tech savvy, too. Annual membership to NKM costs $20/single or $35/dual (2 per family). However, as fans of Farmers' Markets, we made note of the schedule that Jessica posted and it was our plan to check it out. The Farmers' Market is held monthly on the 2nd and 4th Friday from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM (as supplies last). We walked through the open parking lot where there were 5 food vendors who pitched their tents featuring various foods. I suppose it was because we were there just at noon, there was just a smattering of customers who also were discovering this senior center. The vendors that we saw were: - Olay's Thai Express - Aloha Beef Chips - Papi's Empanadas - The Pig & The Lady - Hawaii Sugarcane Juice We walked into the air-conditioned building and found more vendors selling baked goods, fresh fruits & vegetables, lip care products, local fragrances and cosmetics and press-on nails. There was a Community Center worker who graciously provided us with brochures and informed us about the upcoming programs that they hold in this building and membership to NKM. NKM is expanding its campus and even offers this historic site as venue rental. We purchased a couple of fresh papayas and eggplants for only $5 from the gal who was stationed at that table. I considered purchasing a hand of apple bananas but I thoughtfully considered the fact that my husband would be the one carrying our purchases so I didn't want to add more weight into that bag as we walked to this Community Center. As we stepped out of the building, there were more customers (nearby workers from other businesses or other residents) who were buying their lunches and beverages from the vendors in the parking lot. It was good to see more people exploring the Farmers' Market and this Community Center. We're looking forward to becoming members of Nā Kūpuna Makamae and taking part in some of those classes.

They always have a few lifeguards on duty, and the pool even has a rock climbing area. How unique! They have a lot of other programs you can sign up for and even do plays sometimes throughout the year. This is in my opinion one of the best recreational centers on Oahu! The staff is awesome here. They are helpful and friendly! There is also a place where they serve coffee and food. Affordability wise, considering the variety of amenities they have including pickleball tournaments and the option for family plans, you get a lot of value much more than you would get with a typical gym membership. We pay roughly $100 a month for a small family and so that's a great value in my opinion!
