Who We Are Providence ElderPlace is an innovative program of health care and social services for older adults. Our model of care is known as PACE (Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly). PACE programs keep older adults as healthy as possible in the community by providing comprehensive health care and social services including: primary and specialty medical care, a day health program, social work services, rehabilitation, housing (if necessary) and much more. Participants attend the Providence ElderPlace Center on a regular basis, and transportation is provided. The ElderPlace team of health care and social service professionals and our affiliates provide comprehensive integrated care to our participants.
The first PACE program began in the early 1970 at On Lok Senior Health Services in San Francisco California. There are currently more than 40 PACE programs across the country. Providence ElderPlace is the only PACE program in the state of Washington. For more information about the PACE model of care, please refer to the National PACE Association Website. |
