The HLTCA is the full-spectrum professional, political and policy voice for long term care in the State of Hawaii.

Setting the standard for ministering to the healthcare, emotional, social and spiritual needs of our seniors, convalescent disabled and infirm.

Being the most inclusive forum for developing progressive, cooperative approaches and the most effective force for implementing them --through legislative advocacy, professional and community education, and regulatory representation.

Enhancing public understanding that a sound, integrated care continuum affects not only residents and their families but impacts directly and significantly upon the well-being of our community as a whole.

How we provide for Hawaii's kupuna, chronically ill and convalescent disabled is a measure of the respect and compassion we have for them . . . a reflection of our dignity as a society.

The HLTCA membership comprises twenty-five (25) freestanding nursing, convalescent, geriatric care, assisted living and retirement residence facilities, with 2,400 beds. 

The Association represents 63% of the affiliated freestanding ICF/SNF facilities in the State (54% of all affiliated non-hospital-based beds), and 100% of all affiliated Type II adult residential care home (ARCH), private assisted living and retirement residence beds.
