My father was recently hospitalized and then needed to go to short term rehab to get stronger prior…read moreto coming home. He ended up at short-term rehab at Hale Ola Kino. The location was convenient. He was here approximately two weeks. The main reason to going to short-term rehab is if they need more physical therapy and occupational therapy to get stronger to be independent. Sometimes they no longer need to be in the hospital, but may be a fall risk so going to short-term rehab is a good idea. Overall, I think he had a good experience. He did receive PT and OT on most days. I believe it's six days a week. First they started him with a walker, then a cane, and then did trial him on no assist device. I also asked them to make sure he could navigate stairs. He told me the food was pretty good. Staff was attentive. Physical therapist and occupational therapist were personable and provided good therapy. Would definitely recommend this place for short-term rehab.

The administrator Roselle Salon has told me she'll call me back at least a half a dozen times, not one call. I've had to call from 5 different phone numbers just to get them to answer the phone, the 808-983-4444 number. Their main phone number, that's listed on every social media page. When I call from an unrecognized number and they answer, they tell me that the administrator is in.a meeting every single time I've gotten through and today I could hear people laughing in the background while they told me that the administrator was in a meeting, again. Laughing at me, as I am kept from visiting my dying Mother. No reason, no explanation, NOTHING! Yelp, I hope you will let me be heard on this platform so that the community knows how they've treated my family and their patient. I hope those responsible end up in prison for this horrible nightmare they have brought our family.

The art and music activities led by their wonderful employees and volunteers lifted my spirits and helped my healing. I would like to say thank you to Deanna, the Director of Physical Therapy and her stellar staff, especially my OT, Trisha. Mauna Lani Rehabilitation Center (MNRC) is a place of respite and care that exceeded my expectations! What I appreciated most about MNRC were the smiles and hellos I received in the hallways, the inclusiveness of the residents in the center's activities along with the caring attention I received from staff, CNA's, Nurses, and the PT team. I am very grateful to everyone who helped me reach my personal goals.

The only drawback I see is driving up the winding and steep hills of Sierra Drive and Wilhelmina Rise. You will, however be rewarded with million dollar views that you can take in and appreciate. They have quite a good amount of programs that everyone can participate in. Of all the facilities that were presented to us, we chose Maunalani. Maunalani was the right choice to get my elderly Mom back on her feet again.

During a time when our family needed support the most, everyone at Avalon treated us with kindness, compassion, and genuine concern. Over time, the staff became more than just caregivers--they truly became an extension of our family. A very special thank you to Joanne Batalon and Kiana Muneoka. They consistently went above and beyond to make sure not only that my mother was well cared for, but that our family was doing okay too. They always made time for us whenever we had questions or concerns and made sure we received answers in a timely manner. Their patience, understanding, and compassion gave us comfort and reassurance throughout our mother's stay. It means so much to know that your loved one is being cared for by people who genuinely care about them. We will always be grateful to Joanne, Kiana, and the entire Avalon Care Center Honolulu team for the kindness, support, and care they showed our mother and our family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being there for us and for treating our mother like family.

Been in and out of here two times and am currently here 9_/12/26. Both times so far they have screwed up my pain medication where I have suffered at a pain level of 9 almost 10 for over periods of 3 hrs or more. That's totally unacceptable and all nursing could say is "oh we're sorry " which to me is total bullshit. Medications are always a #1 priority, especially pain medication. The total inconsistencies of the quality of care is what makes me not recommend this place for quality skilled nursing facility. They need to improve on all levels of their business, for me to recommend them at all.

As a medical mfg.sales rep. I had the honor and pleasure of meeting "Geo" their very polite super cordial DON (Director of Nursing). She took the time out of her busy schedule to meet, greet and briefly explain the facilities residence service availibilty options and offered me the tour. This facility used to be former LTC Island Nursing Home, although several years ago the owners here decided to up & close it's doors permanently. Hence the slight spin in their new name-Island "Skilled" Nursing name. The new owners took the time to remodel this former nursing home to look and feel like a new millinium modern 2 story domestic home.The outer building shell recieved a nice new paint job and the interior, WOW! Being totally renovated to look modern with a clean well lighted open feel and appearance. They have 2 floors aporox 40 beds with the 1st floor dedicated to Respiratory-Tracheostomy and Ventalator residence who require 24/7 loving care and attention. The 2nd floor is their SNF wing, PT, and kitchen. FWith the shortage of available vacancies here in Hi. this remodeled nursing home away from home for our aging population will no doubt be commited to providing the care and compassion in a home away from home setting that is centrally located in Honolulu. The only drawback is the parking garage where guest parking is far & few between.

Then, 40 minutes later she's no where in sight. My cousin is starving so we tell him to press the call button. It take 10 minutes before the nurse responds. She tries the soda and can't clear the tube still. Then she leaves and says she's going to look for another nurse. The other nurse came at about 6:15. She cleared the tube and did my cousins medicine. The second nurse says that the other nurse will be back to clean his throat tube thing- my cousin looked at me and made the sign of the cross. No one should feel like that about the care they're getting. To top it off his mouth piece falls on the ground. Instead of cleaning it before giving it to him, the initial nurse (the one that couldn't clear the tube). just gives it to him and leaves. Who does that?! You wouldn't give your child something to put in its mouth from a hospital ground so why would you give someone who is immune compromised something that fell on the ground. Be assured I'm making a formal complaint and visiting more often. I'm appalled.

And just icing on the cake, he was in Jan - Feb 2019 and he only got billed in Nov 2019!!! Wouldn't you be surprised? When checking it out, I was told it should've gotten out a long time ago, and person didn't understand why?! I transferred him to St. Francis "The Villa" (which I recommend) and guess what?! He started to improve in health, gained some weight, etc. I really saw such improvement, which goes to show you how Kuakini Hale Pulama Mau did not do a good job in care.

Transferred from Kaiser Hospital over to Hale Nani for intense OT and PT. Kevin the transporter/…read more driver was absolutely friendly and helpful (5 stars). He warned me of the bumps on the road and any sudden stops-for my safety and comfort. I checked in and was not very impressed by the surroundings ( its not the Hilton or Ritz). The place had a 1970's-80's outer island motel feel- sort of like a low budget vintage vibe. Rehab wing is on the 3rd floor. 2 star The headboard of the bed was termite eaten, hallway littered with plastic rubbish bins and plastic storage drawers. Just very low budget but functional sort of ghetto feel. The scale they put me on could hold a wheel chair and we got weighed together/ handle of scale was broken and hanging awkwardly. Little things like that need fixing or replacing but is never repaired is questionable. 2 star Every bed had a 14 inch personal tv monitor that was connected to the wall hung on a heavy duty hinged armature- that's great. First night I was there the service was out due to high winds. TIP: Download movies onto your IPAD from NETFLIX or AMAZON Prime. Lucky I was prepared but my poor roommate was bored silly. Internet went down 3 out of the 7 days I was there. 2 star The rooms are not private and shared with 1 other person-fortunately my roommate was considerate and we got along well 5 stars. First day I was having a consultation with PT, a lady suddenly took a big dump in my doorway. WTH, therapist quickly closed the curtain. The whole room smelled of feces and the aid wiped it up. That lady took a shower after finishing her dump and went back next door. My roommate said many different people are using our bathroom but she is not sure why? Aid Michelle said the lady nest door is too big to fit her shower and comes over to use ours. OK 1, 2, or 3x but everyday? I do not know her and its unsanitary. They have a big shower down the hall and why is she showering in my room?2nd day same lady is using my toilet again "ugh, ummm, haw, hoo..." all these grunting noises while she is dropping missiles. Told myself to GTFO and ran away into the "dayroom". Waited for her to finish showering and vacate before I could use my room again. Roommate not so fortunate-bedridden and nowhere to go. 0 stars Near the end of my stay here ,there was a theft that happened to one of the residence. That made me question the safety and privacy of this complex. Was supposed to stay longer but didnt feel 100% safe. Was it a nurses aid or a visitor scoping out everything? Hmmmm...Any security cameras to do an investigation? 1 star My nurse was "JAY" friendly, intelligent, kind, and had a sense of humor. 5 stars Nurses aid "Army", "Romano" and "Ikaika" very compassionate and caring aids. 5 stars Dietician "Lauren" made my stay so much better by tweaking the meal plan options and snacks to meet my needs. 5 stars food 3.5 star Doctor Kramer -kind caring saw him twice during my 7 day stay- 5 stars. The physical /occupational therapist: Kevin, Katie, Kim and John are all 5 stars. Kevin asked me how is everything so far? I said the accommodation is low quality but the people are high quality and I rather have it that way than the other way around. Joined the daily activities schedule everyday to keep from going bonkers: 5am Brush teeth/TV news 7am breakfast 9am OT 11am music circle 12pm lunch 130pm Bingo 230 pm crafting or karaoke 330 PT 5pm dinner 630pm Bingo or Keno 7pm snack shower/brush teeth 8pm off to "beddy by" My ideal daily routine -woke early and slept early PT and OT 3 hours a day for 7 days a week. Yes I can say working hard really did pay off100%. Still could speak and had an opinion without being a Karen- ask nicely say PLEASE and THANK YOU will get you far here. Can see if English is your second language or perhaps you dont even have a voice a person may not have there wishes met or receive less than the best care here. Honorable mention: Coral/Jasmine the activities coordinator made my stay really fun. Working dogs paid us a visit and we had a live performance/ concert in the cafeteria-5 stars Music circle scared me straight. Most of the people who participated were catatonic with their fists in a ball. When I saw that you can be darn sure I worked my hand to do stretches -scared me into working all the OT exercises! Thank You Kevin over at Kaiser Moanalua PT team to referring my case to Hale Nani. Did not know this world existed and that opened my eyes. If your mom, dad or relative is in Hale Nani- please be a voice for them to get them the best care to make them comfortable while they are there. Overall a great eye opening experience!

My mother took a tumble recently and Kuakini Hospital had placed her at Hale Nani for her rehab…read more My mother was happy with their care except for the food. The 3rd Floor staff was really nice and super kind to my mother. She enjoyed being around them. My biggest gripe is their office staff. Really super bad communication. I would call and leave messages on their voice mail and they would never return my calls. One day I was so frustrated that when I did finally get to speak to someone in a particular department I had asked why do they not return phone calls when messages are left. I was basically blown off and told I don't know. I was pretty stunned about their shear lack of accountability. They would often tell me that they called but I never answered. I would check my phone and I had zero missed calls from them because they never called. Personally, I can't stand them. It was frustrating. My mother was finally discharged yesterday morning. How I found out was through an email Thursday afternoon at 4:45pm that said "We were not able to get in touch with you but wanted to let you know that your mother will be discharged tomorrow." I was so happy to get her out of there so I would not have to deal with that horrible office staff and grouchy people that open the door. I would give them a big fat 0 stars because of their horrible office staff. My mom said 4 but their food is really a 1. So we went with 3 stars.

After hours, actually days in the ER and receiving surgery as the doctor put it " to put a metal plate and other hardware in", person was released to rehab. Thankful for the Villas, a rehabilitation center and part of the St.Francis system. Still unable to live independently, patient chose to move over to the adult assisted living center on the same property. From the Villas it was an easy transition to Hale O Meleana by wheelchair through the courtyards. Thankful for the good care person is receiving at Hale O Meleana. Rooms are spacious and individual units with limited kitchen: full size refrigerator, microwave, hotpot... what else does one need? Not much when the delicious meals are provided in the dining room. Coffee and cookies available on self serve basis in the meeting room. Lots of activities for residents. Crafts, games, social events. There is a lovely garden as well as courtyard for those wanting fresh air. Hale O Meleana is a great option for those not ready to transition to long term adult housing which requires down payment (think Craigside, Arcadia, Kahala Nui) but needs temporary assistance. Charges are month to month.

It didn't seem like she knew the name of her facility either. Uhg... My mom only knew "Hale O..." I used Google and "Hale O Meleana" popped up. Mom thought it was near St. Francis Medical Center... which is on Liliha Street. Putting 2 and 2 together, I guessed that mom's friend was at Hale O Meleana (House of Marianne, in English). We used GPS and found the free parking lot on Mahalo Street. We walked to the front door, but the receptionist was gone for the rest of the day (there was a sign that I read through the glass door). My mom phoned her friend and stated that we were locked out. Mom's friend's friend (Sarah) came out and opened the door for us. We found mom's friend in the outdoor dining area... yay! Hale O Meleana appears to be a clean, modern facility. The courtyard is beautiful with a statue of Saint Mother Marianne Cope (of Molokai) and a pleasant water feature! Lunch service was in process, so we did a quick greeting and left. We'll be back to visit!
