The following public and private programs can make aging in place at home easier for seniors in Ewa Beach. These programs can provide financial benefits and helpful services delivered in person or over the phone.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Hawaii Meals on Wheels | (808) 988-6747 | Seniors in Ewa Beach who are isolated at home and unable to obtain their own food can get regular meal deliveries through Hawaii Meals on Wheels. To qualify, seniors must be at least aged 60, unable to obtain meals due to a mental or physical disability and unable to feed themselves. Seniors can call their Medicaid caseworker or the Elderly Affairs Division of Honolulu to sign up for deliveries. |
| Home Tax Exemption | (808) 768-3799 | Honolulu County's property tax exemption lowers the net taxable assessed value of a property by $140,000 for all senior homeowners aged 65 and older. This gives some families more money to put toward home care. To qualify for this exemption, the homeowner must reside in the property for at least 270 calendar days per year. Lessees also qualify if their lease lasts at least 5 years, and they are responsible for paying property taxes during that period. |
| Legal Aid Society of Hawaii | (808) 536-4302 | The Legal Aid Society of Hawaii is a non-profit law firm that provides free legal services for adults aged 60 and older who are unable to afford other legal aid.

This service is provided free of charge by the Honolulu Community Action Program. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
