Questions to take to Kuakini Geriatric Care, Inc

  • CMS lists SFF Candidate. Ask for the latest inspection and current designation; historical list status is not a statement about conditions today.
  • The published staff-turnover figure is 26.1%. Ask which reporting period it covers and how the current staffing team compares.
  • Check the source date and the latest official record before deciding. Bring the issues above to a visit or call rather than treating the profile as a recommendation.
