PACE Program The PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program is designed to help older adults remain safely in their homes rather than entering nursing facilities.

You’ll provide on-the-job coaching, reinforce safety and customer service standards, assist with onboarding and training new team members, and help ensure compliance with organizational policies and regulatory requirements. You’ll also collaborate closely with the interdisciplinary care team to address participant needs, communicate schedule changes, and resolve service concerns. In addition to leadership responsibilities, Transportation Specialists help keep vehicles clean and in good working order, perform basic safety inspections, and communicate any participant concerns, schedule changes, or vehicle issues to the care team.
