Palolo Chinese Home Adult Day Care Center
Nursing Home · Honolulu, HI
Palolo Chinese Home is a 113-bed healthcare campus at 2459 10th Avenue in Honolulu, Hawaii. Led by CEO Darryl Ing and Administrator Darlene Nakayama, the non-profit organization provides a continuum of care including skilled nursing, intermediate care, and adult day health services. The facility holds a license valid through August 2027 and serves seniors across Oahu with specialized support for memory care and rehabilitation. Its location in Palolo Valley carries a Walk Score of 10, making the community’s scheduled transportation necessary for most local errands.
Oversight records from the Hawaii Department of Health and CMS currently reflect a 3-star overall rating. While the campus achieved a citations-per-inspection rate of zero for more severe “immediate jeopardy” categories in late 2025, recent surveys identified several moderate deficiencies. A May 2025 federal inspection documented 22 health citations—exceeding the state average of 10.6, primarily involving care plan updates and incident reporting procedures. A subsequent December 2025 review found that a resident’s nutrition plan did not reflect current physician diet orders, leading the facility to implement new audit protocols for care plan accuracy.
Clinical care is supported by staffing levels that perform at a 4-star level, according to federal benchmarks. The facility provides 3 hours and 58 minutes of nursing time per resident daily, with registered nurse (RN) presence exceeding the state average at 1 hour and 23 minutes. Professional services focus on long-term wellness, with the quality of care for permanent residents earning a 5-star rating. The campus also offers unique community programs, including a “Meals to Go” service for local seniors and home modification assistance to support aging-in-place.
The residential environment features a culturally diverse setting where programs respect the traditions of various ethnicities. Shared amenities include structured socialization, exercise classes, and cultural celebrations, such as Year of the Horse events. Adult day care operates seven days a week, offering supervised activities and meals for up to 30 participants. The facility accepts a combination of private pay, Medicare, and Medicaid, with daily skilled nursing rates starting at approximately $304.
Prospective representatives seeking an established, non-profit campus with strong long-term care outcomes may find this community appropriate. Families are encouraged to ask directly about the updated electronic incident reporting system and verify the current consistency of nutritional transcription for residents with complex dietary needs before making a final placement decision.
