Manoa Cottage in Manoa Valley is conveniently located near the heart of Honolulu. Each of our three cottages house up to eight residents in a familiar, home-like setting, surrounding a central courtyard, garden and koi pond. Families are encouraged to visit at any time and private gatherings can be accommodated on-site for special occasions (birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, etc.)
We pride ourselves on providing exceptional care administered by a team highly trained, professional and (most importantly) caring staff. Nurse assistants provide 24/7 assistance with activities of daily living. The nurse manager works with a team of health care professionals to attend to the nursing needs of each individual resident. Our activities and events coordinators plan daily activities, special events and resident outings according to the wishes and abilities of the individual. Each day homemade meals are prepared from scratch, by our Chefs, according to the nutritional needs and desires of the resident. Manoa Cottage is a small locally owned and operated family company that takes great pride in the quality of care provided to our residents.
Manoa Cottage accepts residents with a wide range of care needs; from fully ambulatory (Assisted Living Level) to Intermediate Care (Nursing Home Level). We also encourage and support “aging in place” which allows our residents to remain at Manoa Cottage should their level of care increase. Our staff works hand in hand with the resident’s doctors, physical therapists, speech therapist, registered dietitians, hospice etc. to provide the best possible care to our residents. When care needs increase, consideration to transfer to Manoa Cottage nursing facility is evaluated.
Our Skilled Nursing Facility, located in Kapahulu/Kaimuki, opened its doors June 5th, 2012. As a small community (27-beds), specializing in dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, we are able to focus on individualized care and extensive programming and activities to address the behaviors associated with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Maintaining independence, individuality and a sense of purpose are the primary goals of Manoa Cottage.
Three home cooked meals a day are provided by our chef, as well as morning, afternoon and evening snacks. We are able to accommodate special diets and modified consistencies as prescribed by a physician. Our dietetic services are planned by a registered dietitian.
