Midland Care’s Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) is now available in Wyandotte County and a newly renovated PACE Center will open at 818 Ann Avenue in Kansas City, KS.
The program is designed to keep people who need nursing home level of care living in their homes, according to the Midland Care website. The national program serves those 55 and over. A team of doctors, physical therapists, social workers, case managers and others work with patients to coordinate care.
“We’re very excited to be able to offer PACE to more Kansans,” said Midland Care CEO Karren Weichert. “PACE gives older adults the support they need to stay at home, in their neighborhoods, with their families. We already know of many Kansas City families who will benefit from this program.”
Midland Care has provided PACE in northeast Kansas since 2007 and serves Shawnee, Douglas, Jackson, Jefferson, Osage, Pottawatomie, Wabaunsee, Nemaha, Marshall and Lyon counties, according to the organization’s website.
