Residents pick from private or shared rooms, all furnished for comfort and dignity, with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, air-conditioning, and internet. There's a cozy living room for visiting and group meals, a dining area, libraries, and outdoor gardens with walking paths, which are good for a breath of fresh air or spending quiet time alone or with others.
Care at A Ohana includes help with bathing, dressing, and medication management, along with support for mild cognitive impairments and specialized memory care for those who need it.

There are community amenities like telephone and cable TV in rooms, regular housekeeping, help with linens, and maintenance-free living, which means there's no worrying about chores.
