Just after the Lahaina fires a 71 yr old neighbour was feeling unwell and a group of concerned…read moreneighbours decided he needed medical attention, called an ambulance, and he was admitted to hospital. Once the Drs diagnosed his medical problem and had him feeling better he was transferred to Hale Makua for rehab physio as he was a fall risk. He has been working very hard at physio daily and is walking and standing well now. I visited him in HM and he was in a double room, with a garden outlook, with access to a shared covered lanai area with dining tables and chairs. HM is airy with open corridors and shared spaces with gardens to sit in and staff present everywhere helping everyone. When I arrived I didn't know where my friend was and a staff member asked me if I needed assistance and walked me to his room chatting pleasantly as we walked. She knew exactly who he was and which room he was in. Kudos to the staff! I'm going in next week and will sit with him at the tables in the lanai area with ice cream. Hale Makua is a fantastic nursing facility for the elderly who cannot look after themselves, with a family feel, open and inviting. I was very impressed.

I was not given the luxury of seeing many reviews on yelp about Hale Makua Wailuku . I'm a bit…read moresurprised that there were only two reviews. This skilled nursing facility which was the original main hospital in Wailuku has been in business since 1966. But yelpers must not have the need for this type of place. I brought my mother over here who will turn 100 years old in January. She was admitted last week. I must say it was a hard decision to take her there from a retirement home which which was basically an apartment with a dining room and then from our own home. It was the time of life that she needed much more care. I must say that the building is a little dated but overall it is well-maintained. The most important thing is that the staff is exemplary. I was so impressed by the caring and attention they give all of the residence. There is a big game room with television, videos, puzzles games and always a CNA on duty to help all of their clients. There is a beautiful sunroom also used for dining and then the big dining room. The grounds are beautiful. But again it's the people that are so impressive. I was told that there are 10 patients per CNA but it sure does not feel that way. I would highly suggest anyone looking for someplace for their loved one that needs 24 hour care to consider this, I won't call it a facility because it's at home where they want the residence and the families and friends of the residents to all feel like family. They have accomplished that 100%. God bless the staff at Hale Mākua Wailuku

This review is for Island Hospice -Kahului at 833 Makalii St., which can accommodate up to seven…read morepatients. My mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer in July of this year. She deteriorated very fast. When I took her to Maui Memorial Hospital in early September she just got worse and doctors opened the conversation with palliative care. It was a tough decision for my family. We didn't want to make it seem like we were giving up, but we also wanted to keep our mom comfortable and to go with dignity. We started looking into hospice facilities and Island Hospice responded fast. The coordinator came to the hospital and had talked to us about transitioning my mom to their facility and what their facility has to offer. My brothers wanted to tour the area before making the final decision, and the coordinator was able to arrange this tour. My mom lives in Kahului. We wanted to keep her close to home. So ultimately we decided to go with Island Hospice. The facility was in a residential neighborhood and it looked like a regular home. As soon as you walk inside, it's very roomy and inviting. It didn't have that hospital feeling. We had informed them we have a big family and most likely we would all be staying with my mom at the hospice facility. They gave us the big room and gave us couches to sleep in and a couple of chairs to sit. Besides us, my mom had many friends and acquaintances, and almost every day my mom had visitors, and they were accommodating with this. There were so many great nurses and CNAs that work there. They really took care of my mom. Knowing how close I am to my mother, they allowed me to be in the room while changing my mom. They included me and made me a part of my mom's care. While they were repositioning, giving her a bed bath, or changing my mom, I was there holding her hand. The goal was to manage my mom's pain and keep her comfortable as we wait for the inevitable and the staff provided this service and care for my mom. I could definitely say my mom's passing was peaceful. After she passed, they allowed us to stay with my mom for a few hours before calling the morgue. When the morgue picked up my mom, they did not kick us out. My mom died at 1:30 a.m. The staff knew we didn't sleep and we were all stressed with the loss of our mom, so they offered for us to stay there until the morning, but we didn't want to be a burden so we left at approximately 4am. The staff was very welcoming and very supportive. They not only provided comfort for my mom, but they also gave us comfort. They were very understanding of our situation and how difficult it was for me and my family to see our beloved mom in her dying stage. I highly recommend Island Hospice. To all the staff there from the nurses, CNA's, chaplains, social workers, and the coordinator, and etc., on behalf of my family, thank you!

She gave me her cell and she told me, "only call me once or else I won't answer/respond " she never returned my call! Even after several visits to the office, still NOTHING! They are the absolute WORST!! On Tuesday I took my mom (87 yr old, and very frail) to this office for a physician referral to get Rehab services for her at Hale Makua, this form needs to be FAXED over to HM by Drs office. Thursday morning, I call Hale Makua to check on status of the Drs FAX and guess what??? NO FAX HAS BEEN SENT! The lady at Hale Makua shifted through quite a few papers, so that just put my mom farther down the list!! What takes so long to fax 1 piece of paper??? I'm sure it got lost with the her referral for GI which was supposed to be done in May! The Dr told us that she had a patient waiting since Dec for Hale Makua, I'm wondering if she even sent it back in December for that patient?!!!
