Philosophy
King Lunalilo Adult day Care Center provides adult day care
services in a nurturing, safe and secure environment to those adult individuals
whom we are able to accommodate under an Adult Day Care Program in consonance
with the State of Hawaii's Administrative Rules for Adult Day Care Centers. The Philosophy and objectives of the day care
program are:
1.
In the spirit of long
standing tradition of Lunalilo Home we seek to promote the physical, mental and
emotional well being of its participants in a secure and meaningful environment
in an atmosphere of cheer and contentment, Hawaiian Culture, Ohana and Aloha.
2.
To enable the day care
participant to develop relationships outside the family in a socially
stimulating setting; to reintroduce participants or allow them time to adjust
to group interaction; to reduce or prevent physical and emotional withdrawal or
isolation that can result when elders live alone or are left alone for long
periods to time.
3.
To maximize the
participant's functioning and well being; to lessen, delay or prevent
functional regression.
4.
To provide family
caregiver(s) with time and opportunity to care for their own needs or pursue
their own interests by providing care and supervision outside of the
caregiver's own home.
5.
To provide relief from the
demands of constant caregiving; to refresh and rejuvenate
the caregiver enabling continuation of in-home care of the elderly person; to
prevent or reduce the incidence of elder abuse that results from caregiver's
burnout or stress.
6.
To provide time to review
and evaluate other care alternative for the elderly person, including the
possibility of long-term care placement; to delay institutionalization or
long-term care placement for as long as possible.
7.
To offer high quality,
professional care services in a secure and comfortable environment to caregiving families and day care program clients.
All participants of the
center's day care program shall be accorded the same consideration, respect and
understanding and granted the same rights to which all King Lunalilo Home Adult
Day Care participants are entitled.

given to the staff the morning of participation.They will be returned home with the
participant at the end of the day.
Day care participants should bring an extra change of
clothing in case of need and be prepared for any changes in the weather.
Since care of the older adult of extreme age and frailty
or irreversible cognitive impairment can be very demanding, the day care
Program Director and staff invite and expect the collaboration and support of
family caregivers, so the best interests of the participant are served.We find that attending our program a minimum

timely manner and helps them to develop a social connection with other participants
and staff.
