Maluhia

Maluhia sits on Hala Drive in Kapalama, Honolulu, and focuses on caring for seniors who need help with everyday activities or medical needs, offering assisted living, memory care, long-term nursing care, and home health agency services, and they handle both short-term and long-term stays with a staff of over 200 people from many fields-nurses, therapists, nutritionists, dieticians, and social workers. Residents choose between studio suites, one-bedroom units, and shared living spaces, and the building holds about 158 assisted living units and more than 150 beds, with communal areas for daily activities like arts and crafts in a dedicated room, fitness sessions, scheduled group transport, or simple visits to the snack shop and communal kitchen, and rooms have emergency systems for safety. Folks get 24-hour awake staff, on-call nurse support, an on-site pharmacy, concierge services if needed, and simple help like medication delivery, health checks, incontinence care, manual feeding, support for moving around, and even massage therapy, so many daily needs are covered, plus meals three times a day and emergency response at all hours with case management, too. The community concentrates on quality of life, offering both individual service assessments and therapy-physical, occupational, and recreational-right alongside help with medication, chronic conditions like dementia, depression, high blood pressure, diabetes, strokes, heart disease, and more, all under a management team focused on long-term and restorative care. Residents and their families can also use the Maluhia Adult Day Health Center, which monitors health and offers activities throughout the day, while the Maluhia Express Meals program serves meals to the greater neighborhood. The facility accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, and the team develops individualized plans for every resident, considering physical, social, spiritual, and emotional needs, supported by language help in many languages free of charge. Services include immunization, educational programs for patients and caregivers, pharmacy services, community-based programs, and a general commitment to meeting the medical and daily living requirements of seniors with compassion and dignity, all under certification from the Hawaii State Department of Health.
