Kina Ole Estate

Care in Kaneohe

It's been about a week and Mother is having a little hard adjusting to new environment (Not Home). Kina Ole staff is patiently assisting her thru this time. Still waiting for okay to visit her in new home.

I got to tour Kina Ole Estate. The best thing that I like about it is that the units were small, and five seniors can live in each unit. They have their own caretakers and managers for each unit, and the place was quiet. The only thing I didn't like too much was the location because when you're retired, you'd like a place that's nice and serene. But here if you're a senior and you go outside, there's nothing to look at. But overall, I like the facility, the staff was friendly, and they provide a lot of assistance. They have activities and they would take them to the shopping centers.

We went to Kina Ole Estate. It was very reputable. I liked them. It was a smaller setting, which I preferred. They were very thorough in their interview and the walk through the place. The only drawback is, and they're all pretty much the same is the price, it starts around $8,000. And so that was the real clincher as far as making a move at that time. The staff was very professional, very thorough, and answered all our questions. They showed us the facilities, the rooms and the bathrooms, the gathering place where all the patients come together, and the private amenities as well. I liked it because it was a smaller place and it was clean.

Kina Ole Estate was a little nicer than the other place I visited, but it was more expensive. It's newer, so it was more modernized. The rooms and everything were a lot newer. The staff was excellent and very well informed. The rooms were very nice and modern. They're more of apartment-style. They had a gathering area outside. The outside area, the kitchen area, the dining, and the service that they were giving to the residents were nice. We didn't see too many of the functions going on because we were coming in at a certain time, but they always had some kind of activity, so that was good.

Kina Ole Estate was more like a big house. There's plenty of parking there, but it's more like a house. It doesn't have that many people living there compared to the others, but it looked like a nice and friendly place. You have your own bedroom. It's a homey kind of place. If you like to take walks, then that is a nice place, because it has bigger grounds and you can actually walk around the place. They can put the people in groups and walk. If you're more mobile, you have more freedom to walk around. I called the staff and she met me, gave me a tour, and introduced me to the people. They're nice and friendly people. They keep you busy. They do bingo, they play cards, play games, color, and draw. They had an outside garden where they could go out and plant stuff. They are tuning into what the older people like to do. It's a good place.

Aloha! I needed to find a place on the windward side of Oahu for my sister. She has severe dementia. She was too much for me to care for any longer. Beth and her staff were really great in explaining things to me so i could understand the process and the level of care my sister would receive. She has her own very spacious room with a big bathroom. She has 24/7 care and the people there are so nice! I am so thankful for Kina'ole! I woudn't want to have my sister anywhere else.
