Is Hale Nohea Wheelchair accessible
No. Although Hale Nohea can accommodate wheelchairs due to being equipped with an elevator, walk-in showers, and easily accessible outdoor yard, we are licensed to take ambulatory residents. This is because we operate primarily on two levels and due to the fire code, we can admit only those who can walk on their own or with limited assistance, cane or walker. We view this as an opportunity to provide a cohesive and active lifestyle for all of our residents. Safety is the priority in our facility. Therefore, all stair entryways are gated and both levels are monitored. Our safety procedure dictates that a staff member must always assist all residents when ascending or descending elevator or stairs.

Our residents are provided round-the-clock care. We have chosen to exclusively accept ambulatory residents with Alzheimer's or Dementia related diseases ranging from stage 1-6 (click here for Alzheimer's Association of stages). This exclusivity allows us to provide the best possible care for our residents' through our knowledgeable staff who are trained to understand Alzheimer's and Dementia related diseases, its progression, and specialized techniques to minimize stress, and maximize comfort. We do this through regular daily routine. We closely monitor personal comfort by being observant to and sensitive to frustration and use redirection, gentle music, exercise, and the implementation of meaningful activities as basic tools for providing a positive and stimulating environment. Due to our high staff to resident ratio, we are able to provide the type of personalized attention to each of our residents that is essential when successfully caring for those with Alzheimer's and Dementia.
