Short-term rehab or long-term care?
Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.
Short-term rehab
For a stay of a few weeks after a hospital visit, such as after surgery or a stroke.
- Sent back to the hospital17.9%State average: 19.4%About average
- Needed an emergency room visit4.9%State average: 10.3%Better than average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs1.0%State average: 1.4%Better than average
Physical therapist time: about 10 minutes per resident a day. That is more than the state average of 5 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.
Long-term care
For residents who live at the home for months or years.
- Falls with a major injury2.3%State average: 1.9%About average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)1.9%State average: 3.4%Better than average

Who pays, and how full it is

- 79% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average89%Hawaii typical: 82%
Cost of care per resident day$565Hawaii typical: $564
Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending June 2025. The cost per day is what care costs the home to provide, not the price you would pay; ask the home for its private-pay rate. A busy home may have fewer open beds, so ask about availability.
