Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly

Helping Arkansans Live Independently at Home

PACE brings medical care, supportive services, transportation, medications, meals, therapy, and social connection together around older adults who want to remain in their communities.

Arkansas PACE Association

For families and older adults

A coordinated alternative to fragmented care

PACE is designed for people age 55 and older who need a nursing-facility level of care but can live safely in the community with the right support. Instead of asking families to navigate many disconnected services, a PACE team coordinates care around the participant.

The Arkansas PACE Association helps families learn what PACE is, understand where programs are available, and connect with the member organization serving their part of the state.

Could PACE be right for someone you love?

  • They are 55 or older.
  • They need a higher level of long-term care.
  • They live in a PACE service area.
  • They want to remain at home when that can be done safely.
