What does the PACE program focus on?

The PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program is designed specifically to support frail seniors in maintaining their independence and quality of life by allowing them to live at home while receiving comprehensive medical and social services tailored to their needs. This approach integrates care across various services, including medical, social, and rehabilitative support, enabling seniors to remain in their communities and avoid institutionalization, which is particularly important for their well-being.

The focus on home-based care addresses the unique challenges faced by older adults, including those with chronic illnesses or disabilities, by providing personalized care plans that meet their individual needs. This person-centered model aims to enhance the overall quality of life for participants, promoting autonomy and dignity by allowing them to stay in familiar environments.
