Job Description

Centra’s PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) is a nationally recognized model of care serving adults aged 55 and older in our community. The mission of PACE is to deliver person-centered care in the setting that’s most appropriate for each participant—whether that’s in their own home, with family, in long-term care, or assisted living.
PACE is a capitated model of care, which means there are no productivity metrics, only a focus on delivering the care each participant truly needs. Everything is coordinated under one roof with a dedicated interdisciplinary team of providers, nurses, dietitians, physical and occupational therapists, social workers, activities coordinators, and transport staff.
Centra’s PACE program is seeking a dedicated Advanced Practice Provider to join our team and help shape the future of our care model. This is a unique opportunity to be part of an innovative program where comprehensive care is delivered all under one roof.
If you value collaboration and are passionate about team-based care that prioritizes people over numbers, consider making PACE your home.
