In-home Long Term Care
PACE stands for The Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly. The program was designed to provide necessary services to the elderly population that allows them to stay living independently in their home and community for as long as possible. This program is an alternative for those requiring a nursing home level of care and ensures that these individuals are receiving every area of care that they may need to continue living safely in the community.
