Mountain View PACE – a leading PACE provider to rural and Appalachian communities in the commonwealth – has officially opened its new centers in Corbin and Pikeville. These locations bring the innovative Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) to Eastern Kentucky seniors, helping them age independently in the comfort of their own homes.
The large, brand-new healthcare centers enrolled 14 participants in the program even before its opening. Last month, Gov. Andy Beshear and Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman joined Mountain View PACE’s ribbon-cutting ceremonies to celebrate the program’s arrival in Pikeville and Corbin.
Through Mountain View PACE, participants can work with an interdisciplinary care team to receive personalized services, including transportation, recreational activity, at-home care, medication management, and more. This care is delivered at no cost to older adults with Medicare and Medicaid coverage and is designed to help seniors age at home with an array of supportive care.
“We’re thrilled to bring the innovative PACE program to the heart of Eastern Kentucky, which will help us ensure that our older community members receive the support they need to thrive as they age,” said Dr. James Rummel Jr., Medical Director at Mountain View PACE.
