Ha Kupuna is pleased to announce that we have recently published the results from extensive Key Informant Interviews assessing the health care and long-term care needs of Native Hawaiian elders and their caregivers. These interviews clarify needs and issues of particular relevance to Native Hawaiian elders from the prospective of experts in the field. Key informants were contacted across the state of Hawai'i to share their perspectives on the health and long-term care needs of Native Hawaiian elders fifty years of age and over as well as to provide insight into their potential service preferences. Please see the full text of this report by clicking on our Publications and Presentations tab in the web site menu.


A new report based on focus group interviews with Caregivers and Kupuna themselves is currently being produced and will be published as a companion piece to the Key Informant Interviews.
