Hale Omao sits on Omao Road in Koloa, Hawaii, and offers a range of living options for seniors, with care packages that fit people who want independent living, need help with daily activities, or require skilled nursing, memory care, or rehabilitation. The community covers several named homes like Hale Kupuna Heritage Home, Assisted Living Mokihana-A, Makalapua-D, and Makalapua-C, each providing a different setting for seniors, and the heritage home setting gives a comfortable, neighborly feel for people who want shared living and live-in caregivers. Residents can get help with dressing and bathing, mobility support, transferring from bed to wheelchair, insulin monitoring for diabetes, and incontinence care, and staff are on site 24 hours a day for emergencies. There are studio rooms available, and seniors can bring their pets.
Meals are included, which helps save time and money, and residents can use both indoor and community common spaces for socializing or eating together, and there are plenty of activities, both on-site and offsite, including movement classes, social gatherings, and devotional activities for those who want them. The facility welcomes active seniors who want independent living with resort-style amenities, so there's a chance to enjoy life while staying safe and supported, and transportation services are available. Seniors who need more support can get assisted living services like personal care, medication help, and daily check-ins, and care plans can be customized to fit changing needs so residents can age in place without moving. For those with Alzheimer's disease or dementia, the memory care unit has special therapies and activities to help with confusion and wandering, along with 24-hour supervision and safe living areas.
The staff also helps residents with rehabilitation, wound care, and nursing needs, and the skilled nursing area offers round-the-clock medical care for more complex cases. There's also respite care for when a primary caregiver needs a break. The nursing home has a 3-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and the community is rated 8.4 out of 10, which is the highest in the city. Hale Omao accepts various insurance plans, but there are application requirements residents need to meet. With its range of care-from independent living to skilled medical support-Hale Omao lets seniors stay in one place even as their needs change.
