🌟 April Employee of the Month: Charlotte Salcedo!

💪 Charlotte consistently goes above and beyond in the care she provides to our residents. As a Certified Nurse Aide, she works incredibly hard and approaches each day with dedication, compassion, and a positive attitude. She has built strong relationships with the residents, who truly enjoy being around her, and she brings warmth and encouragement to the unit every day. Even when work is challenging.

👏 She shows up with a smile and gives her full effort, helping create a supportive and uplifting environment for both residents and coworkers. Her kindness, strong work ethic, and ability to encourage those around her make a meaningful impact on our team and the Veterans we serve. One of our Veterans calls Charlotte his personal angel. Thank you Charlotte for all you do for our Veterans and their families!

Happy Long-Term Care Administrator Week! 🤙🌺

We kicked off the week at our Veteran Home by celebrating Cheree with a few small tokens of appreciation! We surprised her with donuts, breakfast, coffee, and lei to start the day. ☕🍩🌸

Our staff also took some time to go around during our morning meeting and share some of our favorite things about her. Cheree is hard-working, resilient, and someone who truly perseveres through challenges. She’s caring, supportive, encouraging, and always mission-driven in her dedication to our Veterans and our team.

Mahalo, Cheree, for your leadership and for everything you do each day to support our Veterans, residents, and staff! ❤️🤍💙

🙌Congratulations Irene Pascual for being awarded our Employee of the Month award for March 2026! 🌟

“As a family member, you notice the little things, and Irene does all the little things.

I have personally watched Irene stop to check in with residents, asking how they are and even what the favorite part of their day was. That level of kindness and engagement goes far beyond housekeeping responsibilities. It reflects compassion, presence, and a true heart for the veterans who live here.

Cleanliness is important, but the feeling of being cared about is priceless. Irene provides both.

I have had family members in other facilities before, and I have never encountered a housekeeper who carries herself with the same warmth, pride, and genuine care that Irene does. She represents the very best of what this home stands for.” - Family Resident

Congratulations on your accomplishment!

💪 Simple, safe exercises can help you stay strong, steady, and independent longer.

✅ Build strength: Chair squats, leg lifts, and wall push-ups support everyday movements.
✅ Improve balance: Heel-to-toe walks, toe stands, or marching in place help prevent falls.
✅ Stay flexible: Gentle stretches ease stiffness and keep joints moving.
✅ Boost endurance: Walking, seated marches, or biking support heart and lung health.

🐌 🏁 Start slow, use support, and check with your doctor or Physical Therapist for guidance. It’s never too late to build strength and confidence at home. ♥️

🎄✨ Celebrating Our Oʻahu Ohana ✨🎄

This year has been an amazing year for our team at the Daniel Kahikina Akaka State Veterans Home! We were happy to join our OPH ʻohana at the annual Christmas party for a much-deserved celebration for our staff! From delicious food and dancing to games, contests, and amazing prizes, the celebration was filled with laughter, gratitude, and plenty of holiday cheer.

A special highlight of the evening was recognizing Ohana Pacific Health’s 2025 Ohana Champions who are team members nominated by their peers for consistently going above and beyond the call of duty. Their dedication, compassion, and commitment truly reflect the heart of our Ohana.

🌟 2025 Ohana Champions – Oʻahu 🌟
• Sandi Nihipali – Social Worker, Ann Pearl Nursing & Rehab
• Shaun Abregano – Maintenance Associate, The Villas

Mahalo to all of our hardworking team members and fellow OPH colleagues for the wonderful time, and we appreciate all you do for our communities every day. 💙
