Hospice Savannah has opened a PACE program in Savannah for people 55 and older who qualify for nursing-home-level care but want to remain in their community. The program is described as the first of its kind in Georgia.
PACE covers primary care, therapies, medications, transportation and adult day services. Enrollment is open now.
Dr. Kathleen Benton, president and CEO of Georgia Care Innovators, Hospice Savannah, said a team develops a long-term care plan for each participant.
