– Location provides tailored medical care to seniors from a medical team specializing in aging, chronic conditions – Murrieta, Calif. (Nov. 1, 2024) – Neighborhood Healthcare, a regional Federally Qualified Health Center providing a wide range of medical, dental, and behavioral health services, announced today the November 1 opening of its second Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) center.
PACE is designed to deliver comprehensive and coordinated care to older adults with chronic health conditions. By integrating medical, social, and support services, PACE allows seniors to receive personalized care in their homes and communities rather than in nursing facilities. This approach empowers seniors to maintain their independence while ensuring access to essential health services tailored to their needs.
The nearly 20,000-square-foot facility in Murrieta will offer tailored medical care to seniors from a medical team specializing in aging and chronic conditions.
For many, the facility offers a welcome alternative to a nursing home.
“Community health is about more than just vaccines and checkups. It’s about giving people the resources they need to live their best lives,” said James Schultz, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Neighborhood Healthcare. “Caring for seniors in this manner means providing the resources to do so comprehensively, empowering these individuals to thrive in their community. We’re excited to open this facility in Murrieta!”
“PACE is all about heart and community,” said Rashid Altafi, MD, PACE Medical Director of Neighborhood Healthcare. “Our dedicated team members make a profound difference by building meaningful connections with each participant, addressing their unique needs every day. Their compassion, understanding, and teamwork enable our seniors to remain in their homes while enjoying a high quality of life. At the core of our mission is a commitment to providing the extra care and support that ensures every senior feels seen, valued, and empowered as they age.”
Neighborhood Healthcare’s bilingual medical team works with therapists, dieticians, social workers, and home care nurses to create a customized care plan for each participant to ensure optimal health, safety and well-being. The facility is located at 30135 Technology Dr, Ste 100-150, Murrieta, CA 92563.
