Long Term Care Commission

The Long Term Care Commission studies and makes recommendations on policies affecting long-term care services in Hawaii, including nursing facilities, home- and community-based care, and supports for aging and disabled residents. It reviews the adequacy of the long-term care system, financing mechanisms, workforce issues, and access to services across the state's islands. The commission's reports and recommendations inform legislative and administrative action on elder care and disability services.

As Hawaii's population ages, long-term care affects nearly every family; this commission shapes the policies that determine what care options are available and affordable for kupuna and people with disabilities.
