Senior care homes on Oʻahu
Senior care homes on Oʻahu (Oahu)
Looking for a care home, adult residential care home (ARCH), or assisted living for your mom or dad on Oahu? Hale Kōkua introduces your family to licensed homes that may fit. After that, the home takes it from there.
Most of the licensed care homes on the State lists are on Oʻahu. That means more choices, and more homes to sort through.
We introduce Oʻahu families to licensed homes in town and on the Leeward, Central, North Shore, and Windward sides.
What we help with on Oʻahu
We introduce families to licensed care homes for a parent or kūpuna. You tell us the care your person needs. We explain which Hawaii license fits and introduce you to homes.
- Adult residential care homes (ARCH), Type I and Type II
- Expanded ARCH, for nursing-home level care
- Assisted living facilities
- Community care foster family homes, when Medicaid is paying
Searching on Oʻahu
- On Oʻahu the first question is often which side of the island. Think about who will visit most, and how far they will drive after work.
- Traffic matters. A home near the family who visits often can be a better fit than a home farther away.
- Many Oʻahu homes are small houses in neighborhoods. Ask to see the license, and visit the house before you decide.

The home takes it from there
You talk with the home, visit, and decide. The home handles admission and care. Our part ends at the introduction.
There is no cost to your family at any step, and no pressure to choose a home.
From the mainland
Moving a parent to Oʻahu
Most flights from the mainland land at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport in Honolulu.
Most Oʻahu homes are a drive from the airport, so a first visit can often happen soon after you land.
You can start with us by phone or email while you are still on the continent. After we introduce you, you set up visits with the home directly, and someone from the family still meets the home in person before move-in.

Where this list comes from
These homes come from public records of the Hawaii Department of Health, Office of Health Care Assurance (OHCA). The full list of licensed ARCH, expanded ARCH, assisted living, and community care foster family homes comes from the OHCA facilities roster that the State publishes as open data. We check it every day and update this list when it changes.
- Hawaii Statewide GIS Program, OHCA Facilities layer.
- Combined ARCH and Expanded ARCH Vacancy Report, by area, updated by the State April 2026.
- Assisted Living Facility list, updated by the State April 2026.
- Community Care Foster Family Home list, updated by the State March 2026.
The monthly ARCH vacancy report only covers homes that reported to the State that month, and openings change quickly. We do not post openings. We can ask a home about openings when we introduce you.
Hale Kōkua does not own, run, or license these homes. Foster family homes are private family homes, so we list them by town and license number only, never by the caregiver's name. Confirm any license with the State Licensing Section at (808) 692-7400. Last checked October 22, 2026.
