InnovAge’s ability to help older adults live life on their terms through the Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) couldn’t be accomplished without the committed efforts of our employees, the community, and of course, the seniors we serve. Here’s what some InnovAge participants and their families are saying about PACE.
Praise from Participants
“I can’t say enough about this program. It is absolutely fabulous! All the workers, all the staff, are just tremendous. They are very helpful. They take very good care of us. There’s no other program that we can go to where we would be as well taken care of and benefit-wise as we are here. I would not trade my life here for anything! Thank you InnovAge.”
“I love this program. It’s a shame it can’t be available to every senior in need because you can’t better care than these people give you. Every department is fabulous. I wish I could do something to give back to these people for what they have given to me. I love it here. I just love it!”
“The programs are wonderful! I have Guillain-Barre Syndrome which affects my entire body. I am getting physical therapy at InnovAge PACE to make it work. I can now stand up and walk a little bit. I could not ever do that before and it’s been wonderful for me. It’s a mental uplift and you see and meet new people and get new friends and it’s just been a great experience.”
“I’ve been with PACE for almost 8 ½ years. I love the staff. I love the crafts we do. I love being involved with all the other participants. We are kind of like a big family here. If I didn’t have them, I don’t know where I would be health-wise or mental-wise because I need people around me. We have a good time, I’m here 5 days a week, and there’s always some kind of activity going on that you can join into, and it’s just a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful place. I know where to go, I know who to talk to. And I just love it. And like I say, it’s a godsend, for me. Thank you!”
“The staff here at the center is awesome! PACE has been able to help me with a lot of things, from picking me up and taking me to the center, to taking me to every doctor’s appointment. They let you know when they are coming, which is great. And, the home health care is also a great addition for me.”
“I love InnovAge! The friends people bring joy! Our director cares for everyone and does an amazing job. I love all the medical staff and the dentist is wonderful. The whole staff is great! And the gym has taken a 250-pound woman and gotten her down to 140. I know because I am that woman!”
Praise from Caregivers
“Our mother was an InnovAge participant and she loved it. We loved the care she was given. So, we decided when we were old, we wanted to be InnovAge participants. And here we are! We are also waiting for our niece to be old enough to be in the InnovAge program. When that happens, it will be a fun day!”
“My elder mom and dad were InnovAge PACE participants. The services provided for participants and caregivers of elder family members are amazing. It's a blessing.”
“InnovAge has saved my life. Just good care for my dear husband who suffers from dementia. Wonderful staff in every department.”
