We had such a warm experience during such an emotional fragile time. Every aspect of our hospice journey was handled with so much care.

Navigating the idea of hospice was very difficult, especially when the hospital urged us to select a company. We did our due diligence and interviewed several organizations on the island. Ultimately, we decided to go with Mālama Ola based on their quick response, willingness to answer questions before signing anything, and unique approach to hospice care.

I felt really lost throughout the death and dying process with my mom. Every member of Mālama Ola's staff I worked with were kind, caring, and patient, and helped to guide our family through the final days. They will be my first call if I ever have to go through this again, and I hope they can help you, too.
