Hale Ho Aloha sits up in Pacific Heights in Honolulu, right at 2670 Pacific Heights Road, where folks can look out from the lanai over Punchbowl and even see Diamond Head and Downtown Honolulu, and it's a pretty spot for those who want a home-like place with local-style cooking, sunsets, and favorite desserts. The building's a 59-bed, plantation-style care residence that's updated and feels modern but is laid out to feel just like home, with both semi-private lanai rooms and private rooms folks can choose from, including studios, single rooms, and two-bedroom options, plus the rooms have basic features like WiFi, cable TV, local telephone calls, and kitchenettes or kitchens in some. The place has protections under federal law for discrimination, and everyone's welcome, with care for folks of all identities, and the staff keeps things friendly and safe, with round-the-clock help from registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nurse aides.
Hale Ho Aloha covers a wide range of services, so residents can get help as they need it whether they're looking for independent living, assisted living, memory care, or more hands-on nursing home support, and the team plans out care with residents, with the help of doctors, nurses, a dietary manager, a licensed social worker, and a therapy team, all checked and reviewed pretty regularly. There's always a nurse on duty to manage medicines, wound care, and support with everything from bathing and grooming to more advanced needs, plus medication delivery comes straight from a pharmacy, and extra careful help is available from certified nurse aides for those who need it. You've got daily meals planned by their Certified Dietary Manager and kitchen staff, and meals get adjusted for special diets, too, and the kitchen tries its best to support any nutritional needs, including supplements. Housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning come included, and towels and bedding are provided, with basic hygiene and incontinence supplies supplied as well.
The facility doesn't skip on activities either. Residents can expect daily group and solo activities, social events (like monthly birthday celebrations, arts and crafts, and hula or guest performers), exercise therapy from restorative nursing staff, outings when they're scheduled again after COVID-19, and regular updates for families. The community's got game rooms, fitness center, WiFi, a dining hall, and even a salon or barbershop, plus there's transportation and for medical appointments or errands, including Handi-Van services. Safety is always on the mind, with features like fire sprinklers, emergency systems, accessibility details built in, and the site's got both semi-private and private living options with nurse call systems.
Hale Ho Aloha also supports those who need long-term care, respite care so families and caregivers can take a break for at least seven days, and hospice care for comfort and support when it matters most, bringing in help from groups like Bristol Hospice, Islands Hospice, Malama Ola, Navian Hawaii, and St. Francis Hospice, with attention to pain, spiritual and emotional needs-hospice isn't limited by age, religion, race, or illness, and services stretch into other long-term care settings when needed. Residents can connect to friends and family through video calls, and there's always an easy way to schedule a tour or meeting, either online or on-site, with business hours Monday through Friday and Saturdays by appointment. Prospero "Toto" Agudo keeps maintenance and laundry in order, Christine Lin oversees the office and accounts, Justin Tio, CDM, CFPP, makes sure food and menus are managed, Doris Hahn, L.S.W., guides social services, and Administrator Bryce Sumida, DPT, OCS, NHA, supervises it all to keep quality and safety in place-so folks have a place that stays comfortable, clean, and steady. The staff's known for being kind and happy, and the community accepts long-term care insurance, shares regular updates with families, and does its best to make things easy for those who live there.
