20 Best Cdpap Programs In Honolulu, HI (2022 Updated)

The staff at ALTRES Medical are all wonderful people to work for. They’re kind, respectful and responsive to the needs of their customers and staff. They are also very accommodating and respectful of scheduling, location and site preferences, and are available at any time to provide assistance via text or call. I really appreciate the company’s embrace of technology with the text job posts, notifications and document submission being especially helpful. In the nearly 7 years of working for ALTRES Medical I have always been able to choose the schedule that works for me and my life and I have always felt appreciated. When I go to a facility I know that I am there representing a company that genuinely cares about people and their needs. To me ALTRES is the embodiment of Aloha and I am proud to be a part of it!L V

I was impressed by their personalized follow up from the employment application process. Sincere and transparent, I can relay on their manner of communication. The office staff has been extremely efficient with the communication. The best quality is they appreciate our professional performances and quality. Even I work in the different island, I have never felt any inconvenience or gap. If someone looks for the work to enhance the professional quality, this company can provide the opportunity for it. Highly recommended.yukiko mcclure

I truly recommend this staffing agency in the highest regard.louie bayuga

Home Instead Senior Care has been a God send for our family. Patti has been so amazing and such a tremendous blessing. I can tell that she truly cares about my father, she's not just simply doing a job – I feel like she's treating my father like her own family. She takes him to pick up lunch, for walks, she purchased house slippers for him because she noticed his had holes in them, and she's started taking him to his doctor's appointments when she can and that has helped us SO much! In the very beginning, my father, who has dementia, was very against having someone come into his house and he kept telling us we were "wasting our money". But, now I can tell that he trusts her and even looks forward to when he knows she's coming. Thank you Patti for caring for our father and giving us peace of mind that someone so kind and compassionate is caring for our father while we're at work.Wendy Chang

I absolutely love the Home Instead staff and care professionals! After speaking with an office member, I immediately knew that Home Instead was the right company to care for my mother-in-law who suffered from dementia. My family and I needed extra help to ensure her safety as she progressed through the disease, and Home Instead provided us with professional, properly trained, courteous, and compassionate care professionals. Our weekly care professional, Addy, cared for my mother-in-law with patience, initiative, and always knew what my mother-in-law needed. With Addy’s help, my mother-in-law aged happily at home until her passing. One of the best decisions our family made was choosing Home Instead!Nancy Boyd

If not for the expert care provided for my mother by the Home Instead folks I would be lost. Margie goes above and beyond with her on site presence with housekeeping and meals that look like they're from a magazine cover. It is abundantly clear that Margie cares for Mom above and beyond what would be normal for a client. Taylor is also a fantastic CAREgiver with an exceptional personal touch. The support staff in the office are amazing as well, dealing with scheduling issues and unique needs with courtesy and class. Thank you all!Steve Hinton

While in the hospital, my grandma’s social worker recommended that I contact Always Best Care for assistance. They came highly recommended as they have helped many of their patients get discharged safelyj back home. We immediately contacted the office and their care manager came to visit my grandma, mom and me at the hospital within 1 hour. Their response time was amazing. We discussed several options on immediate care at home upon discharge, as well as developing and long term plan. What I really like about our care manager is his honesty and integrity. I appreciate that they’re not one to just tell me what I want to hear and will never over promise anything. Their service has been outstanding. Thank you so much!!!Tobie Laimana

Always Best Care has been caring for both of my parents for the last month and they have been great. My mom has dementia and my dad is bed-bound. We were previously using another agency but found out that they have been sending unqualified caregivers who are untrained and non-nurse aides. ABC only sends the most experience nurse aides and CNAs to assist my parents. They do extensive background checks, tests and are vaccinated. I don’t know what we’d do without them. If the need arises, we can rest-assured that they can also help us find a care home to move my parents in to at no charge. Thank you so much to the entire team at ABC. You have been wonderful.Toby Arakawa

Always Best Care came highly recommended by a couple of my friends who also needed care. From the moment I met the owner Tyler, I knew that I would be able to welcome them into my home. The entire ohana at ABC makes me feel so comfortable working with them. And the caregivers… what can I say. They are so caring, skilled and experienced. The company is more than willing to provide the necessary credentials for all of their caregivers. They are all trained nurse aides and CNAs. They are the true definition of the aloha spirit. Thank you Always Best Care for always striving for excellence.Sean

It's such a honor and blessing to be part of FirstLight Home Care as a caregiver. I feel so at home here because I finally found a company who treats me like ohana (family). It makes my passion as a caregiver even more joyful and rewarding to know I have a genuine, loving, compassionate, understanding and supportive staff (Lauri & Joann are AMAZING!!) to help be there for not only for my clients needs, but as well for myself. I definitely highly recommend FirstLight to those  families who are looking for homecare for your loved ones as well for those who are also seeking employment. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. You will feel the love right away because I sure did!! God bless you.Cheryl

Working as a Caregiver for FirstLight Home Care of Honolulu has been nothing but a blessing. The staff is extraordinary. Communicating with the office is a breeze and a pleasure and I believe they truly treat you like family. All my clients have been wonderful and FirstLight really goes the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable with the case. Am greatly pleased to work full time for FirstLight!Gage Lucas

Firstlight Home Care is a great company. I enjoy working with them. They all are very nice, kind and caring coworkers. They help you learn more about the position that you apply for. They always help me work around my schedule even during other situations. They are very respectful and understanding. I would reccomend FirstLight Home Care to anyone who is looking to work as a caregiver.Kiara Belonzi (Kiki)

With a delightful group of ladies at Home Instead, together we worked as a team to dedicate twenty-four hour non-medical service to aging adults and adults needing ADLs, medication reminders, SBA, transportation, light housekeeping, and companionship including more. The best part about Home Instead is we collaborated and participated in team building daily—it’s about compassion and love. I enjoyed each day being thankful to teach CAREGivers basic skills (hands-on training guaranteed) provided introductions for each caregiver new work assignment for their first, second, and/or third day prior to the needs and level of comfort for new hire which we all contributed together as admin staff. No one is left behind. Home instead is an inviting place that feels like home moreover, we value each customer as family and treat every CAREGiver like close family with utmost respect and professionalism because, treating others the way we want to be treated is essential. As a former Client Care Manager at Home Instead, we assisted with service calls for those interested in service and followed up with a FREE consultation to learn more about the history, care needs, and area of focus—to us it’s personal. When we’re needed evenings or late nights, we stop and adhere to the safety of others the best way we can thanks to our on-call supervisor, Kim, who is the best and highly knowledgeable. With one phone away to make sure you, your loved one, and caregiver are safe it’s vital to Home Instead as always. With an awesome Home Instead manager, Ty, and Ericcka, the owners Paul and Sherry, we all believed in unity and wholeness. Most importantly being a Manager isn’t about the title, it’s about conquering challenges, learning, sharing, growing and being accountable to make where we’re stationed a better place. We all respect one another by conducting ourselves the way we expect others to follow therefore, being flexible and driven is priority. We spend time together during and outside work especially when special holidays are approaching, we enjoyed decorating and learning about various cultures which is why celebrating each other like close family with lots of laughter or a moment of peace to make your stay at Home Instead remarkable. Last but not least, we are known as ALPHA— filled with love. Home Instead impacted my entire life and future in a encouraging way, It’s the best workplace environment anyone could EVER ask for. You my friend have a brilliant Recruiter/supervisor, Justine, who delivers exquisite quality of work— she is miraculously patient, kind, and sharp with a striking mindset as well as Keira who delivers a bundle of joy and detailed work for scheduling that is mind blowing. Ericcka is the prize because she will ALWAYS leave a bold statement wherever she goes, the queen is determined and highly dearest to us all. Ty delivers excellent service that goes over and beyond every day and has the brightest smile to make your day. In general admin ladies is incredible and has a special place in my heart forever including the CAREGivers and owners of Home Instead. Thus, If you’re seeking a place for your loved one OR yourself, please remember Home Instead will take good care of you with trustworthy CAREGivers that will cause you to jump for joy. You will always get quality over quantity—now that’s personal! Respectfully, Erion LA PearsonLeslie Pearson

Home Instead came to the rescue and immediately for me! My mom drastically declined mentally and physically during Covid and as I live in the mainland I could not look after her. I made a call to Home Instead and Ty & the team came to the rescue. We had set her up with weekly visits within 48-hrs. They assigned my mom a great helper who looked after her, took her to doctors appts, shopping and cruising around. My mom loved it and looked forward to her days with Home Instead. These ladies helped with much more than you could imagine with an aging and mentally declining parent and even counseled me when things got tough due to my moms mental decline. They are the best – little guardian angels and the best surrogate family when real family isn’t near or can’t be there. Don’t hesitate!!Kristy Llamas

This is my first time working as a caregiver and I love it. All the staff here are great. The thing I like most, is the way they communicate. It makes me feel very secure when doing my job. I know if anything happens, that I will be able to get into contact with the office right away. Also, they are very organized which helps when trying to build your schedule. Another great thing is if you're not confident with doing a certain task that's needed for your client, one of the staff, Ericcka or Erion are the ones that have helped me, will come and train you in how to do the task. They work right along side you, and will work with you until you feel confident. Overall great place to work!! 10 out of 10!T'shea Bryant

I have been working with Brightstar for the past 4 years- first for help with my mother, and now with my father. Following a health scare a year ago related to his type-2 Diabetes, the nurse team at Brightstar was integral at making sure the physical aspects of his home were safe for his advancing age, they worked closely with all his doctors to get his medications on track, and trained his caregivers to provide the diet necessary to get his health back on track. I live on the mainland, so the trust I have put in the Brightstar team has definitely been worth the investment. They take care of his grocery shopping, appointments, and keep him company. They truly treat him like their own family.Tracy Alexander

I have been very impressed with Brightstar. One of the most important reasons that I have liked about Brightstar is that they found a perfect fit for the care of our. And because we love Malia so much, they have kept her with us, providing us with consistent quality care. I have been with other agencies where they would switch caregivers on us as soon as our family got comfortable to them. Brightstar also works great with long term care agencies. I have had absolutely NO need for any follow up with our moms long term care agency. I am so happy I found them. They have made my life so much easier and less stressful. Thank you Brightstar, keep up the great work!C Kaio

Brightstar care is a company that I would highly recommend for both employment and home care services. I have worked for Brightstar care for almost 3 months. From the pre-screening process through the onboarding and start of employment I felt very welcomed by all the staff to include the owners Alison and Steven Lee, Lily Hui – Business Manager, Mark Naval Recruiter, Ui Tyrell, Employee Experience Manager, Marisa T., Client Experience Manager, and Joann Shigeta. The organization ensures that the employees are engaged, and their needs are being met. The caregivers at Brightstar are dedicated, compassionate, and strives to provide exceptional care.Lilian DeCosta

Lani who at first I had a hard time with but like I said a lot of them became Ohana . Give them a chance as they have a new staff now and looks like it is for the better 🙏 And the PT crew is the ATeamWanda Oshiro

Aloha all🌺. My husband and father in law are both residents of this wonderful facility. The staff here, Zeny the head of recreation dept in particular, who is a wonderful asset to CCOH, have always been eager to assist me whenever there’s been a need for it. I’m glad my loved ones have been accepted as permanent residents at this facility. I’m comforted and reassured in the fact that open communication is always available.Barnette Jumawan

I’m a resident at the care center of Honolulu, first of all the employees are very friendly and the activities are always active. Some of my favorite activities are bingo, volleyball and painting. The best thing at the Care Center of Honolulu are the concerts we have everyother day! I strongly recommend the rehabilitation unit! 5/5shirley penera

After reading some negative reviews – I suppose YMMV. However our experience has been pleasant so far. We've have been with Wilson for about a year. We have the aide come by only once a week to visit my mom – so we are at the minimum level of care visits. Because of this we had a lot of different aides rotate in and out in the beginning. However, recently we got one that has been steady for awhile and seems to be working out very well. As with any people contact business, you really have to find the right 'fit' of personalities. In our case it's going well so far (of course until we get some one else). Overall the service has been good – and no big issues – just a few tweaks here and there concerning what the aide is to do or not do. We went with Wilson because they have been around for a long time – and as an organization, they monitor their aides regularly, are very prompt in replying or contacting us for any reason. Thanks Wilson Care!NT Plain

Our Mom has been well cared for by Wilson Homecare for 10 years. She initiated the service herself when she was capable but could no longer drive. Over the years her children have become her intermediaries with Wilson and we have had desirable results. Mom has had 3 regular caregivers and all have been professional and great companions for Mom. Each has had the ability to be a friend to her and maintain the professional standards needed, which is exceptional. We have also needed fill-in help over the years and the schedulers at Wilson have most often been able to place a compatible caregiver. Wilson Homecare has made it possible for Mom to age in her own home which was her goal. We highly recommend our friends at Wilson. Mahalo to each of you!Sally Lambert

This office puts on a great professional front, and at first you might get a good caregiver to take care of mom, but that's just a dangling carrot, because that caregiver is not available, a floater they use to give a good impression. What you will really get overall is inexperienced, undereducated, untrustworthy, lazy unskilled babysitters, too busy on their phones with their private life. A few are fair, most are bad and have no sense of professional boundaries. An insider told me the Web Reviews that pump up their star ratings are written by staff members, and the schedulers are very manipulative, controlling, and intimidating to the workers.E S

I cannot thank Hospice Hawaii enough for their support, guidance and compassion. Every stage of my Mother's decline was extremely appreciated by myself and my family. Mom was always kept comfortable and every one of her visits from either, the Chaplin, Wes, who always lifted Moms spirits and made sure she happy and peaceful….could not leave her room without laughter. Yvonne, Tiffany and Susie were the Hospice Nurses who were there to care for her pain and suffering levels, and notify those who needed to be notified about her passing. Again, the nurses were very efficient, caring and very much appreciated. When Mom needed something to make it easier for her, Hospice was able to provide a hospital bed and other equipment she needed. When Allison, the Social Worker visited me, she answered all my questions and was very compassionate. I will always treasure my hand-casting piece from Jessica. We did three generations of our hands intertwined…Mom's, my daughters hand and mine. Very, very special. I cannot tell you how much happiness it gives me to see our hands on display at home. I believe we waited too long before Mom made her choice to go with hospice. Hospice Hawaii was absolutely the best possible road for my Mother….she was happy right up to the end, and made the transition with dignity from all the help we received from Hospice Hawaii. Thank you to the whole staff! It takes very special people to do what you do.Gail lindstrom

Our family's experience with Hospice Hawaii, although brief (only 6 days), was a very positive one. I only wish we had thought to call them sooner so we could have taken advantage of all their services. Everyone at Hospice Hawaii, from the telephone answering service who took my initial call on a Sunday morning, to Susie and Yumi (RN's), to Jaime (social worker) showed us patience, compassion, and empathy during our father's final days. They expedited the delivery of supplies, hospital bed, Broda Chair, commode which we didn't even know we would need. Most of all, they helped us to comprehend what was going on with our father, how to best help him, and what to expect. The Hospice Hawaii team kept us informed, taught us how to care for our father at home, and basically reduced our fears of how we were going to manage on our own. Thank you, Hospice Hawaii, for being there when our family needed you most!Linda Kealoha

Disappointed! Social Worker shared confidential information. I believe that the Social Worker assigned should have been an advocate for the patient and not for the spouse (patient was in his right mind), we were not able to be part of my father's last two weeks of his life because of it! She listened to the spouse and told us that we couldn't see him during his last days. My father owned that house! He should have been asked, not the spouse or other children! Very disappointed with the way Navian workers handled this whole ordeal! Would NEVER recommend Navian for your loved ones hospice care!GayLynn Goo-Simpliciano

Terri Nakasone was our point of contact when my mom was transitioning out of hospice care where we wanted to place her into a private care home environment. Through every step of the way, Terri was a great resource in terms of our preferences and coordinating all of the different parts which went on behind the scenes. She came to the rescue again when we needed to make a change to a foster care home. Without this valuable resource (including having Terri as our contact), I wouldn't have known where to start. Thank you (Terri and all the great people at Kupuna Care Connection) for this very valuable service.Craig Oshiro

We had to find a place to place my dad for hospice care and Flo was the answer!!! Loved working with Flo. she was very caring and informative. She gave us options of different care homes and even offer to come and see the care homes with us. Flo gave us good advice on what to look for in a care home and what she would do if it was her parents. We were able to place my dad within a day at a wonderful group home. We could tell she was serving us from her heart and wanted the best placement for my dad. We highly recommend Kupuna because they care!!!!M Lee

We were in a time crunch to find a home care option. Joee gave us immediate and thorough attention with compassion and understanding of how difficult this process can be. We are blessed to have been introduced to Kupuna Care and very thankful to have found such a great fit so quickly.Rebecca Ahina

The owner of Senior Helpers is a person of immense compassion, competence and integrity. If you’re looking for excellent quality care/assistance for your senior loved one (even for just an hour or two) this is the place!Caroline Wilhite Photography

I recently used Kupuna Care, who have been a total god-send in my search for a new caregiver to take in my dad. I had no idea where to find a qualified caregiver, and had tried several other routes that came to dead-ends. But Kupuna Care, including Flo and Samatha, came to my rescue! Their service was beyond spectacular, enabling us to move my dad in about one week from the start of the search with no difficulty to a wonderful caregiver and his home. They listened to and met my family's needs in every way. They went beyond the call of duty by matching my family's preferences with possible caregivers, making arrangements for visits to assess my dad, talking with the case management company, negotiating rates, and so on. Every caregiver that they sent was well qualified and thoroughly vetted. We had an abundance of choices and had difficulty deciding who to go with since they were all so good. I cannot recommend Kupuna Care more highly. They are kind, thoughtful, compassionate, thoroughly professional, follow up on all details and commitments, fast and responsive, very patient/customer centered, and advocated for my family with all parties. They fill a real gap in services. I was at a loss about what to do, and they quickly located an appropriate home in the right location at the right price. They work from a deep well of goodness, competency, and love, for which I will be always grateful. I would use them again in a heartbeat.Cheryl Nakata

We are so blessed to have the ongoing support of PATCH, especially during this "Stay Home" season! Mahalo for all you do to support parents and educators who care for keiki in Hawai'i.Amber Dailey

Everything, the staff was caring and professional they knew everything about my mom's condition and knew exactly what was needed to be done and carried their tasks responsebley. Each therapist was aware of their schedule as well as the next therapist appointments and more my mom's daily schedule. If not for Care Resources Hawaii and Queens Hospitol my mom would not be as mobile and healthy as she is today. Thank GOD for Care Resources Hawaii and the Queens Hospitol. ALOHAPolu Nui

I have used Senior Helpers as my daily caretaker service for a year. I find them to be an excellent company with many high quality employees and services. The Administrator Karen keeps her agreements and is always available to solve problems. The cost is right in line with similar Hawaii Caretaker Services. They are my choice over the two other Hawaii companies I have used in the last three years and you would be wise to choose them. All my Senior Helper caretakers have been good but Samuel Mukai, stands out over other good caretakers Karen has sent me. Sam keeps to the schedule and always shows up on time with a desire to make my life better and with a good attitude. He does exactly what I ask of him without wasting any time. He remembers routines and carries them out. I don't need to check his work because I can trust him to be accurate and thoughtful in the delivery of whatever help I am needing, be it bathing or food preparation. He is a real asset to Senior Helpers and I am very fortunate to have him on my team. Mary PaulsonMary Paulson

Provides excellent Medicare Home Health services for patients that have a hard time leaving their home to see their doctor or therapist.Gary Wong

We cannot thank Salvation Army enough for providing this wonderful day care center for the elderly. My relative has been going there for a few years now. She meets friends and also get great personal care and attention. There are many helpers and nurses on hand to take care of the elderlies each at a different stage of life and physical ability. They provide exercise, music, arts and crafts, bingo, birthday celebrations and lots of love. They also administer medications. Going to the place becomes a routine which my relative looks forward to every morning, even on weekends when the day care is closed.SeFok Chan

There are a number of good caregiving companies and options to choose from in Honolulu. After a critical look, we chose Attention Plus Care (APC). I'm glad we did. They helped me and my family take the best possible care of my mother for 8 years, until she passed away early in 2020 at the age of 95. Scheduling reliability and responsiveness were especially critical to me because I was my mom's primary caregiver and the APC schedule had to mesh with the schedules of several family members, each of whom took shifts during the week. During the 8 years we worked with APC, there were only perhaps four occasions out of thousands of scheduled visits when no one came and I was not notified–an excellent record of reliability! Schedule and service needs changed from time to time, and APC worked well with me to make all needed changes. Through the years, I had the opportunity to work with staff at different levels of the company and in different departments. The caregivers, the supervising nurses, training and mentoring staff, finance and accounting staff, and schedulers were all professional, competent, caring, and easy to work with. You got the feeling that they really understood the stress and urgency you felt in caring for your loved one, and they wanted to help. It is not often possible to have a specific caregiver assigned to you, but feedback is welcome, and you can talk with APC about what qualities you're looking for in a caregiver. Consistency was important because of my mom's dementia, and the schedulers worked hard to minimize the number of different caregivers assigned. This helped my mom to be more calm and accepting of whoever came to help her. It also reduced the time I had to devote to orienting new caregivers. I was really glad I had a relationship with APC when my cousin became acutely ill. My scheduler was able to find caregivers on very short notice, with shifts and requirements rapidly increasing, to care for my cousin in her last days. I am extremely grateful to Attention Plus Care for their staff's reliable care, excellent communication, and kind and competent administration. I highly recommend them.Susan Doyle

My children have had nurses & aides from Attention Plus for many years. Having 2 special needs children had me skeptical about bringing in strangers into my home. My babies were my world. Being the mama bear I am, I had a lot of expectations. I was looking for someone who was not only medically competent and experienced, but also had heart. They didn’t have to be parents themselves, they just needed to be able to see that my children were human beings that needed to treated as such. 16 years later our family have been blessed to have had nurses that have been with us as long as 12 years. Our nurses have become our family. Their hearts are so huge that there are no words that I could use to express the love and exceptional care that they have shown.Their utmost priority are my children. Not only are they professional in every aspect of their job, but they treat my children with dignity, and not with a disability. Our life Is not your normal household. But we got nurses aka Guardian Angels that help us with the tough parts so we can focus on enjoying our time with our kids as a family:}Joann Kondo

From our first meeting we knew we chose the right agency to help out with caring for our mom. Other agencies wanted minimum hours and too many rules and no staff it was disappointing. But you worked with us. We are forever grateful. We had to end your services after 5 years as we had to admit mom to a facility, and we hope that she gets the same care your employees gave her in our home for so many years. Your schedulers and nursing supervisors were awesome as I felt I had a personal connection with each of them. You gave us so much of your time and I know there was a lot behind the scenes to make everything happen for us, so I want to also thank the unseen staff too. I have shared my families experience with our doctors, attorneys, trustees, and family and friends, about your wonderful agency. I hope the positive word of mouth helps others too. Mahalo!Monica Tanaka
