Aging with Dignity in a Home-Based Choice

We help older adults age at home with dignity while providing support to caregivers, so they can work and rest.

Nurturing Environment

You want the best care and most loving environment for your family member, but maybe you’ve realized that you can’t do it all yourself. It is easy to wear yourself out by caring for the physical and supervisory needs of someone else, and there is often no time to think about their social needs. At all ages and physical needs, social interaction is an important part of wellness.

Alexian PACE pairs medical care with social activities and meals in a coordinated way that is designed to promote health and well-being while preserving the participant's community residence, family relationship, and lifestyle. Social interaction in an adult day center is an important aspect of health and wellness for frail seniors. Ascension Living Alexian PACE encourages older adults to be involved with art, games, music and enjoying meals with friends.

Why Choose PACE

Coordinated Care and Geriatric Experts

Once a participant is enrolled in the program, Ascension Living Alexian PACE provides all necessary health care services. Most care is delivered in an adult day health care center where participants see their doctor, receive therapy, visit with friends and more. The geriatricians at PACE coordinate primary care, specialist care, hospitalizations, medicine, and therapy, doing away with the confusion that can occur with multiple providers.

When older adults enroll at Ascension Living Alexian PACE, they receive the added benefit of having access to doctors who fully understand the complex medical issues associated with aging. Personalized coordinated care is provided in the home, at the PACE center/ PACE medical clinic, as well as in the hospital and other necessary medical settings.
