Having to place your loved one in an assisted living facility is one of the most difficult decision…read morefor a family to make. The process is stressful, emotional & can be overwhelming! There are so many options out there & finding a facility that is the right fit for your loved one is so important. Our family had to make that heart wrenching decision to place my dad in an assisted living facility & after looking at many options & visiting many facilities we first placed him in a large facility that was very nice, staff was nice & looked like it had all the bells & whistles...after about 4 weeks & many reasons later we knew that it was not a good fit for him & we needed to move him...he needed a smaller more home like atmosphere with more individual attention. A friend suggested Kina'Ole in Kaneohe & we arranged for a tour with the owner Beth. From the very moment we entered the beautiful gated property we knew this was the place for dad...it was exactly what we were looking for! The grounds are so beautiful & well taken care of...3 separate homes on the property with beautiful trees & flowers everywhere...nice paved walkways & even a few chickens running around with their baby chicks...my dad loved it!! We decided to place him there & it is the best decision ever!!! Dad's house has 8 rooms...each resident has their own large bedroom & private bathroom which we could decorate however we wanted too...so it could feel like home for him...theres a large living room/common area where the residents have their daily activities & delicious home cooked meals & where they can just relax together on their own recliners & watch a movie together & have a snack. There's lots of staff to help out & to care for dad & all the residents...the entire staff at Kina'Ole are amazing!!! They have made the transition so easy for dad & our family & to watch dad immediately feel welcomed, comfortable & relaxed there has been the best feeling in the world!! Dad loves to be outdoors & take walks & the staff will take him outside twice a day for a nice long walk or whenever he'd like one...they truly care for the residents as though they were their own family members! Dad told me that he "feels spoiled" there cause they all so attentive & take such good care of him! I almost cried hearing him say those words because I knew we had found the perfect place for him!!! He is thriving & happy & so are we!!! We now don't have the constant worry we had before...we know that everyone at Kina'Ole makes it their priority to care for dad's physical & emotional well-being...we finally have peace of mind The icing on the cake was last week I got a text message for Wehilani (head nurse in his house) & she sent me pics of dad out & about with his housemates enjoying the gorgeous grounds & having fun with his new friends. She shared with me how his week went...how well he's adjusting, how his appetite has been, how he's been sleeping (great) & just a report of his week Kina'Ole is a hidden gem & our family feels so blessed to now be part of their ohana!

Aloha Let me just…read morestart off by saying BEAUTIFUL. As soon as you drive into this beautiful private property you're surrounded with such a spacious and safe environment. KinaOle has 24 hr caregivers, monthly outings, music therapy with Maria, movement therapy and art therapy. When going into the homes each room is so spacious and has its own private bathroom. The staff are so welcoming and brings Aloha to the front door. These are not your typical CNA/NA's they're mostly all local young ladies and gentlemen that grew up here on the islands and treat our loved one like family. Home is where you make it, and KinaOle felt like home to me. I would recommend everyone to come down and take a tour at KinaOle Estates.

They were very attentive and caring, yet professional. The home itself was warm and welcoming with a beautiful backyard set-up for visitors to enjoy. While it may not be the most modern home, it is filled with the most important thing...love and compassion. Even though there was a constant flow of family and friends who came to say their final good-byes to my sister, at no time did the staff make us feel like we were intrusive or disruptive. Their care of my sister during her last days and especially after she passed, were phenomenal. They gave us the space and time to grieve, all the while assuring us that they were there if we needed them. My hope and prayer is that no family will ever have to utilize a hospice care, but if they did, I highly recommend Navian Hawaii. My family and I are extremely grateful for the loving care given to my sister.

The backyard of the hospice house has a small garden area, a patio, and a swimming pool. The home has four nurses rotating 24/7, a housekeeper, and a cook. All staff members work for Hospice Hawaii. The bedrooms are divided into two residential rooms and three respite rooms. The residential rooms are for patients who needs long term care by the nurses. The respite rooms are for patients who are staying for five nights for free (got to give the caregivers a break). After the fifth night it is $100 a day. Each bedroom consist of a hospital bed, a recliner, small dresser, and television. Emergency oxygen tanks are available in each room in case the electric goes out. There are few portable oxygen machines for the patient to use in the family room or the bedroom. Two of the bathrooms are reserved for the patients while the third bathroom is for staff members and visitors. The patient bathroom is equipped with handicap railings near the toilet and the shower. There are commode toilets available for patients who are unable to use the bathroom. The living room is more like a little lobby area with a beverage station for guests, sign in log for visitors and volunteers, as well as a round two seater table. The family room has a couch, a recliner, small table, and a entertainment shelf with books, DVDs, and a television. My pops stayed at the Hospice Hawaii Kailua house for five nights. Hospice Hawaii made transportation available through ABC Transportation with a pickup in Waianae and drop off in Kailua. He arrived there on Tuesday August 29, 2017. After his five nights stay in Kailua then he got transported back to Waianae from Alii Transportation. The nurses that I have met personally like Rolyn and Yvonne are very friendly and outgoing. They joked around with my pops while he was in Kailua. My pops has his own opinions about the other nurses whom I did not meet. Guests are able to visit their loved ones as long as the noise is down. The nursing home is a peaceful environment so the other patients are able to relax and sleep when needed. There was a big difference in weather for my pops to experience. Waianae tends to be hot. Kailua was raining on Tuesday (8/29/2017) while all other days was cooler and comfortable weather. Family members are able to call their loved ones who are staying at the hospice house. Phone calls need to be limited and the nurses normally answers the phone. A loved one may refuse the call especially if he/she is too tired to talk. 52/100
