Adam showed us around and we understand the type of care and quality that The Ivy can provide. This community is going through a renovation so we didn't see everything which we were fine with. At this point in time we don't live in Hawaii but are considering returning and knowing our options upon returning made us feel at ease. Upon returning on another vacation we plan to take another tour to see the complete renovation. Thank you Adam for the tour. You answered all of our concerns.

This is a review for the food, eaten as a guest of residents living at the institution/facility…read more The food was inedible. It was listed as a "Moroccon vegetable tagine, with chickpeas and sweet potatoes". What arrived was a plate with a messy slop of brown food, more akin to a dried-out casserole. This was the only vegetarian option. It tasted like a bland chili, over-flavored with cinnamon. The components tasted like they had been cooked separately, and then combined into whatever the brown, flour-laden sauce was. For a main entree, it was completely inadequate in terms of protein. It was served without any rice/garnish. Really just incredibly sloppy. Worse than a cheap cafeteria experience. I did not eat the dish after 3 small spoonfuls. Coffee served after the meal was like mud. There was only half-n-half on the table, but milk was able to be ordered. One positive note: The server who attended to our table was absolutely outstanding. She was accommodating, very pleasant, patient, and no request was a problem or too much. Her name was Kharolina--I hope The Ivy recognizes what an amazing member of the team she is. The menu 'reads well' ... but what is listed bears little resemblance to what is actually served.

Seven months earlier, mom, with a family history of weak kidneys, was in renal failure. She refused to eat and was in pain. Johanna, through her awesome diversion tactics, distracted Mom to the point that she opened her month and ingested whatever went into it. This went in for weeks. Her kidneys eventually started to come back! Mom, being a bit demented, thought she owned the place. One morning, she found everyone still sleeping, and complained, "This is not right. How can I run the place when everyone is sleeping?" She always kept an eye at meal time, making sure everyone was fed. She also worried that we couldn't afford to feed the crowd since she owned the place. This attests to her sense of belonging. Hale Malamalama is very well run. Everyone of our relatives who visited commented on the cleanliness and absence of odor typically found in nursing homes. The atmosphere is collegial and the team spirit among the many crew brightened our spirits, even in stressful times. Kudos to all. Lea Anne and Joseph

Also to be able to have our family come and do potluck lunches with her at the facility.

A customer's experience with such personalized service usually banks on their relationship with their therapist. In this case, we are fortunate to be aligned with Summer. She's a pro - patient, clear in her exercise instructions, encouraging (yet firm), and flexible with some of our last minute scheduling issues (Niu Valley is quite a commute from Moanalua). The facility is right behind Jack in the Box on Kalanianaole Hwy; the light at the left turning lane can try your patience. Parking during lunch hour can be a little challenging; fortunately it is very large parking lot shared by other businesses. They do a nice job with scheduling/changing your appointments, and the email reminders really do help (as does the $50 penalty if you cancel in less than 24 hours). All in all, the experience of going through this form of PT along with the physical exertion without impact to your joints is definitely worthwhile!

I have such mixed feelings because this is 5 stars for Tara, but 1 star for other providers. I've…read morethought about this review for many months. Long story short I really have a bad taste in my mouth from certain providers. I found them to be condescending and to position themselves as the authority, rather than evoking and collaborating with my wisdom and expertise on my own body. Also I find that people who are naturally thin tend to make a lot of assumptions about women who aren't naturally thin in terms of how fit we are. Your assumptions were wrong. However for Tara, she made me feel very seen and heard and took a far more collaborative approach. Additionally she stayed curious about what was going on and made some really crucial observations which lead to me seeking further medical tests and learning that in contrast to PT's diagnoses, I actually have osteoarthritis and a totally shredded up hip joint with multiple tears and degenerative cartilage at the most severe level someone can have. I wish I'd sought more testing sooner as I might have been able to intervene before the damage got this bad but super grateful to Tara for her insight and suggestions. She was amazing start to finish. So overall, mixed bag. I hope the other providers can take a more humble approach, recognizing the strengths and wisdom of their clients.

She had no family living in Hawaii and we needed to have a care facility who could manage her care, communicate with distant family, and provide a safe comfortable home environment for her. Faith Harbor worked closely with our family to insure my aunt's care and with her doctors to insure her many medical conditions were treated properly so that my aunt's best interest were represented. Faith Harbor treated her as family. They are very attentive, loving and caring. It would have been very difficult on the family if my aunt did not living at this caring home. We made many visits to Hawaii to visit my aunt at Faith Harbor and were always very pleased with the facility, the owners, and staff. My aunt was very happy living here and most importantly all her needs were met by the very caring owners and staff.
