Healthcare Navigation / Eldercare
Employee Assistance of the Pacific offers Eldercare and Healthcare Navigation Services through Ho’okele Personal Health Navigation, LLC to most covered employees and their families. The eldercare and healthcare system can be a maze and the Ho'okele professionals can help individuals and their families with education, consultation, and referrals. It takes a village to manage a health care crisis or to help a senior to remain independent and safe in their residence as long as possible. Services include but are not limited to understanding a new diagnosis, researching insurance coverage or finding a specialist, a day care program or retirement community. When needed, the navigators can assist with end of life planning and family issues.
Employees may exchange some of their counseling sessions of their annual EAP benefit to meet with a Caregiver Consultant from Ho’okele Personal Health Planners by for an hour or two at no charge. To make an appointment, phone Employee Assistance of the Pacific at (808) 597-8222 or Toll Free at (877) 597-8222.
Note: Not all employers have provided this service for their employees.
