Est. 2009 · Serving Hawaiʻi
Compassionate in-home care in Hawaiʻi, with our island hearts
Personalized in-home healthcare, assisted living, and senior care — honoring the culture of Hawaiʻi and the dignity of every ʻohana we serve.
Our Story
A legacy of kindness and connection
In 2004, a passionate group of professionals and volunteers united to transform the lives of elderly and disabled seniors across the islands.
Their work took shape with the opening of DLMC, Inc. in February 2009. In July 2009, they started Kamaʻāina Healthcare Services — known for compassionate in-home assisted living and personalized care that addresses body, mind, and spirit. We celebrate life through our services and embody the spirit of aloha.
Mission
To promote holistic well-being by integrating mental, physical, and spiritual health while honoring our island's culture — supporting our ʻohana with love and respect.
Commitment
To uplift and empower every individual we serve — including those with I/DD and our cherished kūpuna — with dignity, joy, and purpose.
