My husband was here for 5 weeks after transfer from an Oahu hospital. The skilled Nursing was top notch. The PT, OT staff was first rate. Admissions, the Director of Nursing and community services Director were outstanding. Nothing is perfect but every time anything was brought to their attention they chose to consider it as a “way to improve.” Highly recommend for skilled nursing and short term rehab. Plenny aloha and great teamwork here.

I am very impressed with the caring attitude of the staff at the Kauai are Center. They seem to really care about the people entrusted into their care. The icing on the cake was when I was offered some sparkling cider that they had brought on a special cart to each resident. And even though my sister’s family is very far from Waimea, she is happy with the staff and therapy she has been receiving. Thank you for all you do.

The staff at Kauai Care Center are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, caring, and interested in knowing their residence. The facility is clean and tidy, and has all the necessities needed to help the residence feel comfortable. The meals and snacks are great, and activities engaging. Transportation to and from doctors' appointments with staff's support are immensely helpful. I'm able to get updates on mom's physical and emotional health whenever I call or visit. My family and I are very grateful mom is able to reside there.
