Geriatrics Physician Opportunity

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 participantwhether 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 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 physician 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 in a community-based setting.
