San Diego PACE is upgrading our computer systems to provide better care and an improved experience for you. We appreciate your patience as you may notice delays at our call center or during your clinic visits.
In April of 2010, San Ysidro Health opened the Adult Day Health Center with the vision of providing a place for seniors in the community to receive care as well as offer a place for socialization and activities. With the growth of an aging population in San Diego county and San Ysidro Health’s goal to expand senior services, the organization looked into the PACE program as another option to offer seniors.
In 2014, an application was submitted to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and San Ysidro Health received approval. San Diego PACE opened its doors to the South Bay community in April 2015 after transitioning from the Adult Day Health Center model of care. Since opening our first center, we have expanded throughout the county to serve South, East, Central, and North San Diego. Our operation has enabled thousands of seniors to receive much-needed care and support to stay in their communities.
San Diego PACE is focused on providing the highest quality of care for our seniors. Through our years of experience, we are able to identify the needs in the communities we serve. Our participant population is very diverse and are mostly concentrated in the Southern region, however, knowing that there is a huge opportunity for growth throughout San Diego County, we are continually expanding our services to reach those who are in most need.
Our team of Geriatric Specialists is equipped to manage the care of our most frail seniors. Each participant is assessed by an Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) and a care plan is created for them. Our goal is to provide all around care for our participants in order for them to live well and thrive in their community.
San Diego PACE’s state-of-the-art facilities proudly serve 114 zip codes throughout San Diego. We encompass and provide life-changing medical care to the County’s South, Central, East, and North regions.
