PACE-RI was founded to help local elders live safely at home, stay out of the hospital and nursing home, and reduce strain for their caregivers. We have had steady growth since opening our original center in Providence back in 2005. Since then we have added new centers in Westerly (2013), Woonsocket (2016), and Newport (*Pending CMS approval).
This year we also moved to a brand new flagship center in East Providence. PACE-RI has 140 staff members who speak a total of 10 languages, and we are proud to be one of the fastest growing companies in Rhode Island (Providence Business News, 2020).

Services
PACE-RI serves as a medical home for our participants and coordinates all medical and behavioral health care and social services. Our clinical team is made up of geriatricians and other experts at treating older adults with complex health needs. It can be hard for some of our participants to travel so, in those cases, our doctors and nurse practitioners provide care right in the participant's home.
You can help PACE-RI make a difference in the lives of Rhode Island's neediest elders. Your tax-deductible gift will go toward programs like day center services, home care, and primary care. Make a Memorial Donation in remembrance of a loved one or give a gift in honor of someone for their birthday, anniversary, or another special occasion.
PACE-RI is led by an innovative and progressive management team that sets the standard for how we treat one another and our participants. We are all committed to ensuring everyone ages with the independence they want, support they need, and dignity they deserve. We cultivate an environment of professional development and growth and have a strong reputation for promoting from within.
PACE is a health plan designed for older adults who are still able to live at home but need daily care. Many PACE participants have cognitive issues such as Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, while others have physical, behavioral, or social needs. In fact, most PACE participants have multiple health issues treated by the PACE team.
