A letter from our home
Kriss, RN, owner and director of Casa Colina Care

We opened Casa Colina Care because aloha shouldn't end at a hospital door.

My grandmother spent her last years in a place that felt like a waiting room. Fluorescent lights, shift changes, a TV nobody watched. I made a promise that day — if I ever cared for someone's kupuna, it would be different.

Casa Colina Care is a five-bed home, not a facility. We cook real meals. We sit on the front lawn, go for a walk. We call families by their first names and we mean it.

If that sounds like what your mother, father, or spouse deserves — come visit. We'll put water on for tea.

Four commitments,
held daily.

How we care isn't a slogan. It's the rhythm of every day at Casa Colina Care — the small things, repeated, until they become the home.

i.

Personal plans

A care plan built for them — not a room number. Updated as needs change, with family at the table.

24/7 presence

Awake staff, always. A 1:3 caregiver ratio, day and night, with an on-call RN.

iii.

Real food

Home-cooked meals, shaped by her tastes. Lemon-ginger tea on the lanai if she'd like it.

Quiet grounds

Tropical, tended, and close to family. Trade winds through the lanai most afternoons.

behind our care.

Hi there! I'm Kriss Aseniero, Registered Nurse and the administrator of Casa Colina Care.

My journey in healthcare began across the ocean in Carmel Valley, California, where I took my very first job as a caregiver. That experience ignited a lifelong passion for clinical excellence and senior advocacy, ultimately leading me to pursue my nursing degree. Over the years, working on the frontlines of patient care taught me that true healing happens when exceptional medical expertise meets the comfort of a place that feels like home.

That philosophy is exactly why I founded Casa Colina Care right here in beautiful Honolulu. I wanted to create an Adult Residential Care Home where residents don't just receive top-tier, RN-managed clinical oversight, but where they truly thrive in a warm, dignified, and family-oriented environment.

When I'm not managing operations or checking in on our residents, you can usually find me enjoying the outdoors—whether I'm spending time with my beautiful granddaughter, checking in on my son's latest college adventures at Azusa Pacific, or out on the water soaking in the Hawaii sunshine.

Anyway, welcome! I know that choosing the right care for your loved one is a deeply personal decision, and I am here to make that journey as reassuring, clear, and supportive as possible.

How we care

Four kinds of care.
One kind of presence.

From assisted living through end-of-life comfort — the same kindness, the same people. We don't transfer care between buildings; we adapt around the resident.

i.

Assisted Living

Help with daily living, bathing, medication, and meals — while preserving as much independence as possible.

ii.

Special Diet Certified

Provide therapeutic or texture-modified diets. The PCP (Primary Care Physician) maintains signed orders, posts menus a month in advance, and strictly documents any food substitutions.

iii.

Respite & Short-Stay

Short-term stays with a minimum stay of two weeks — so family caregivers can rest, travel, or recover.

iv.

End-of-Life Comfort

Gentle, loving care in familiar surroundings, in partnership with your hospice provider of choice.
