Key Review Excerpts
“The compassion & patience of the caring RN’s especially Demi RN & Michael RN with the very hardworking CNA’s Cris,Puri,Paris Jerwin Mildred made it easier for us.”
“The PT, OT and speech services I had were top of the line. Such caring therapist who go above and beyond.”
“My mom recently stayed at Hale Nani for two weeks and she was miserable the whole time. The service displayed by the staff was poor and uncaring.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
