While looking for in-home respite care services for my mom “A Place for Mom” referred my name to “Home Instead” & another caregiving provider. Taylor from Home Instead replied almost immediately & was SO helpful & friendly, even suggesting some helpful questions I may want to ask from other caregiving providers. We ended up using Home Instead & I’m so happy that we did! The caregivers took my mom on errands to the grocery store, helped her with household chores, kept her company, & even watered our plants outside. Patty even brought some homemade meals to share with my mom, which she totally loved! Communication with Taylor throughout the whole time was very prompt; she & all the care professionals who helped my mom were wonderful! I can’t thank Taylor & all the caregivers enough; thank you for putting my mind at ease so I didn’t have to worry about her while I was away & thank you for caring for my mom so well!

Our family could not have managed the holidays without the loving support of the caregivers at Home Instead. From the very beginning, Nizza and Jennifer scheduled providers to come in and help with companion care and transportation. We appreciated the assistance of Martina S., Alia, Ping, Jacqueline B, Kelsey Ann, Destinee J, and Teresa. The overall experience of this Home Instead, Windward Oahu was exceptional! Thank you for your love and support during our time of need. We will miss you all.

Home Instead Kailua is the BEST home care company in Hawaii! They actually care about their clients and provide specialized and professional care. They are trustworthy, kind, responsible, and reliable. Butch, the owner, is involved and caring. Nancy, Kanani, and Nizza, who make up part of their management team are phenomenal…they are all knowledgeable, patient, caring, and responsive. My father is fortunate to have the most outstanding caregivers in Cassie, Rodney, and Aurea! Not only are they extremely kind, but they are so skilled, gentle, protective, fun, and caring. When they are with my dad, I don’t have to worry, because they treat him like family. I am so blessed to have found such an amazing company. I highly recommend Home Instead to anyone looking for a team of top-notch, honest, reliable, caring, and professional individuals! They have helped to make one of the most challenging times in my life so much easier. I am and will be forever grateful! - Suzette

George Hewitt Home Instead Care Provider We have been fortunate to have George Hewitt with Home Instead care for our loved one several times a week this past year. He is a gentleman who consistently brings good cheer. He enjoys cooking and has made many excellent meals for her. We are also very comfortable having him drive Myrna to go shopping and other interesting, scenic, and enjoyable outings. When I came across an announcement for the Orchid Society Show at King Intermediate, he took her, and they had a fabulous time. Myrna loves flowers and is growing roses, orchids, hibiscus, herbs, and many other plants. George helps her to manage them nicely in addition to his regular duties. Thank you, Home Instead, for George Hewitt. Paula Mantel for Myrna Zezza

January 8, 2023 We knew as soon as we met Ariana in September 2021 that she would be an ideal fit for our loved one. Always on time, kind, considerate, and productive, it is like a match made in heaven. Her ability to remain calm and understanding throughout our loved one's various states of mental, physical, and emotional needs is a testimony to her strong character and training with Home Instead. We also trust Ariana to perform various tasks, from driving, medical appointments, family correspondence, meal planning and preparation, cleaning, garden tending, shopping, and caring for many aspects of the home. She is punctual and leaves clear records in the notebook. Thank you, Home Instead, for Ariana. We feel blessed with much-needed peace of mind for our loved one in her care. Paula L.

Helpful FAQs
At Home Instead, we've helped families recognize those signs and build a care plan that supports independence—not takes it away.
Here are some common signs it might be time to consider in-home care:
- Missed medications, meals, or appointments
- Challenges with bathing, dressing, or mobility
- Increased forgetfulness or signs of memory loss
- Withdrawal from social activities
- Stacks of unopened mail or unpaid bills
- Family caregiver stress or burnout
The good news? Help doesn't have to mean moving out. Our Care Pros help older adults stay safe and supported right in their own homes.

Still unsure? A care consultation is a great place to start. We'll listen, answer your questions, and help you explore your options—with no pressure or obligation.
Here's when home care might be the right step:
- You're juggling caregiving with work, family, and your own well-being
- Your loved one's needs are growing beyond what you can manage alone
- You're noticing signs of burnout, frustration, or fatigue
- You want a consistent, trusted partner to rely on
Home Instead Care Pros provide support that fits your routine—not the other way around. Whether it's meal prep, a walk, or help getting to appointments, our care is designed to enhance—not replace—your role.
You don't have to wait for a crisis. Most families who start care with us say they wish they had done it sooner.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer—but if your loved one wants to stay in their own home, in-home care can be the most personal, flexible, and reassuring option.
In-home care vs. assisted living
Assisted living can be great for those who want a communal setting and are ready to relocate. But if your loved one wants to stay at home, in-home care offers:
- One-on-one attention in familiar surroundings
- A flexible schedule that fits your lifestyle
- Support with meals, mobility, personal care, and companionship
- Help from Care Pros who get to know your loved one—building trust and routine
In-home care vs. hiring a private caregiver
Hiring an independent caregiver can seem less expensive—but it comes with risk. As the employer, you'd be responsible for payroll, insurance, and coverage when they can't show up.
With Home Instead, we handle everything:
- Professional hiring, training, and supervision
- Background checks, insurance, and 24/7 backup support
- Personalized matches and no long-term contracts
In-home care is all about helping your loved one stay independent, comfortable, and safe—right in the place they know and love. From simple companionship to specialized dementia support, our Care Pros are here to help make life easier.
Here's how it works with Home Instead Kailua:
- We start with a conversation. We'll meet with you in your home—and listen closely. What does your loved one need help with? What do they enjoy? What's most important to them? This free consultation helps us create a customized care plan.
- We build your care team. We'll match your loved one with a trained, compassionate Care Pro based on skills, schedule, and compatibility. Many of our Care Pros speak Spanish and bring years of experience supporting chronic conditions or memory care.
- We start care quickly. We can often begin care within 48 hours. Services may include bathing, dressing, transportation, meal prep, medication reminders, and more. We also offer 24-hour care, dementia support, and hospice assistance.
- We stay connected. Our Kailua office is available 24/7 for support. Your dedicated Care Manager will stay in touch to make sure everything's working—and adjust care as needs change.
It's care on your terms. Ready to get started?
At Home Instead, we don't just send a caregiver—we introduce you to a Care Pro. It's a title we take seriously, because our team members bring more than just help—they bring heart, consistency, and respect for the life your loved one has built.
Here's what sets our Kailua Care Pros apart:
- They're trained and trustworthy. Each Care Pro goes through a thorough background check, drug screening, and extensive training—including how to support Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and chronic health conditions.
- They're employees—not contractors. That means we handle taxes, scheduling, and supervision. We also provide liability insurance and workers' comp, so you're fully protected.
- They're matched with care. We take time to match each Care Pro based on your loved one's personality, preferences, and needs. It's not just about filling a shift—it's about building a relationship.
- They show up, and we've got your back. If your regular Care Pro can't make it, we'll send a qualified backup—no scrambling on your end. Our 24/7 support line means help is always a call away.
