Senior Services
Medical Services
ILS helps seniors remain independent by receiving the care they need while remaining in the place that they call home. ILS participants receive all of their health care and support services through the program. Primary care is provided by a PACE physician who is familiar with the history, needs and preferences of each of our seniors.
Interdisciplinary Care Team
The interdisciplinary care team is key to assessing and prescribing a complete medical plan for your aging loved one. A group of dedicated, experienced medical professionals work with you and your loved one to create an individualized health care plan to meet your unique needs.
