“We saw a need in the community to bring back a program that supports older adults who find themselves in a service gap—needing health service yet unable to afford a continuing care community,” said Jake Bell, Christian Horizons president and CEO. “Through the support of New Horizons PACE’s interdisciplinary team, these individuals can receive vital health and social services, allowing them to remain living independently for as long as possible. This is person-centered support at its finest and we’re privileged to serve.”
Like other PACE programs throughout the country, New Horizons PACE St. Louis is a proven cost-effective care alternative to nursing home care and is led by an interdisciplinary team of health care professionals that provide person-centered health support to qualifying older adults at-home or in the New Horizons center. Through connection and support, New Horizons PACE St. Louis allows older adults to continue living in their community while providing peace of mind to families that their loved ones are supported.
