- Ask for the written rule on when a resident must move out, and how many residents moved to a care home or nursing home last year.
- Ask whether any units are set aside for residents with dementia and how exits are secured, since Hawaii has no separate memory care license.
- Ask what share of residents pay through Med-QUEST or long-term care insurance, and what the policy is if private funds run out.
- Ask for the residency contract to take home, including every fee and the notice period for rate increases.
