What We Do

We understand how challenging and stressful it can be for both you and your family when searching for the right senior living option. The key to making the best choice is to find the housing option that fits your lifestyle, can meet your healthcare needs, and is within your financial resources. This is where Kupuna Care Connection comes in.

Why We Do It

Kupuna Care Connection was founded by a team of compassionate healthcare professionals. We are experienced in working with seniors and licensed care facilities throughout the State of Hawai‘i. Our team knows how big of a decision moving to a new living community can be. We understand how confusing it can be to navigate through the various complexities of senior living options.

Our mission is to provide compassionate, personalized senior placement services that honor the dignity, cultural values, and unique needs of our kupuna and their families, ensuring they find the care and support they need.

We believe that our experience will allow us to assist you in making the right connection. This is why we formed Kupuna Care Connection.

 How We Can Help

Contact us for a free, no-obligation consultation. This can be done over the phone and only takes a few minutes. From there, we’ll set up an in-person assessment with a navigator, who is a licensed and experienced social worker or nurse case manager. After the initial assessment and gathering of information, your navigator will provide you with information, resources, and appropriate senior living options. Once you make a selection, we’ll continue to be by your side, ready to assist in whatever way we can to ensure the transition to your new home is as smooth as possible.
