Overview of Tender Loving Care

Tender Loving Care offers assisted living and memory care in Waipahu, HI. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident lives in a private or shared room. Memory care provides a supervised setting for someone living with dementia. The five-bed community may suit a resident who prefers a smaller, more intimate setting.

Private rooms provide an individual living space, while shared rooms suit someone who wants a roommate. Respite care supports a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover, and rehabilitation services focus on recovery or maintaining function. Jovita Ibon operates the community.
