GOING HOME PLUS
___________________Â

"Be independent. Do things for self and not depend on others. I know what I need. Everything is perfect! I do what I like, I go where I like. I enjoy life! If I die, I will die happy. I'm 100% better than where I was."

"I'm happy. My peace of mind is back. I want to continue my peace in myself. I can go under the banyan tree and enjoy the breeze. I love you folks because of the services you did for me. You showed personal caring in working with me."

Participant: "I am happy to be back together with my family." Spouse: "I was hesitant and scared having him go home without a leg as it was a new life changing experience. Services and equipment were delivered which made it easier and more comfortable."

"I don't want to be sick and thought I was going to pass away over there. I want to be healthy and visit friends and show everybody I'm still alive! I shower myself, I cook, exercise every day. I lost 61 pounds. I'm very happy."

"It's a lot better living on my own than being cared by someone else. I feel so much happier. I feel like I accomplished something. It's a better life as I can eat what I want and I get to spend time with my son."

"Going Home Plus really changed my life as it allowed me to have help when I had no help. With family and Hawaiian Going Home Plus, it works as a solid team to surround you with help in every effort you need."

"It's really key and important to gain independence. Going Home Plus has also been helpful in negotiating when housing is not adequate and the promptness of addressing it when I was kinda being ignored...that was extremely, extremely helpful."
