We Keep Seniors Healthy, Engaged, and Happy At Home

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide a full range of coordinated health and wellness services to qualified older adults in their homes, the PACE center, and the community so they may remain safely at home for as long as possible.

Innovative Care for Aging Individuals

Our goal is to provide our senior community members with the care, medical treatment and support they need to achieve the highest quality of life – while remaining independent for as long as possible. Our team of elder care experts offers an alternative to nursing home placement that features comprehensive, coordinated care for a senior’s medical, social and physical needs, while also providing peace of mind for family caregivers.

Why choose PACE?

PACE is flexible in the way it delivers health care and related supports to seniors. This means your PACE services are customized to meet your needs. Your PACE team will provide care and support in your home, in the community, and at the PACE center as needed.

PACE is unmatched in its highly effective method of helping seniors remain in the community and out of nursing homes. This wrap-around health care model combines the supports and expertise needed to help you continue to be successful at home.

PACE is here for you. By design, PACE becomes a path to a greater quality of life for seniors. It brings together a team of health care and resource professionals dedicated to helping you feel better and live better.

As Social Work Month comes to a close, we highlight Krista - see what she has to say!

Hello! My name is Krista Blamer and I am proud to serve as the Director of Care Coordination and Social Work Manager at PACE Central Michigan. Over the past 5.5 years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting our participants in their own homes and working alongside an incredible team to make a meaningful impact in our community.

I earned my BSW from Central Michigan University and my MSW from Spring Arbor University, and I’m grateful to use that foundation every day to advocate for and support others.

Outside of work, I’m a wife and a mom to a busy 2-year-old boy who keeps life fun and full of energy. In my free time, I enjoy golfing, spending time with friends and family, and anything that involves warm weather and being near the water.

I look forward to continued growth for PACE Central Michigan and the opportunity to provide the right care, at the right time, for the right reason to all of our current and future participants.

As Social Work Month

Our next Social Work Month Highlight is Charis!! See what she has to say!

Hi everyone, I’m Charis! I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a bachelor’s degree in Social Work and Criminal Justice, and a master’s in Social Work, with a focus on health and aging.

Before joining PACE Central Michigan, I worked in the probation unit at a courthouse in Ann Arbor, at a primary care office, and on a college campus. These different experiences helped shape my passion for supporting people through different stages of life. I also work occasionally at hospice, which allows me to keep learning, growing, and deepening my understanding of care and support.

At PACE, I truly enjoy building relationships and connecting with our participants. Every day is different, which keeps the work exciting—but no matter what, it is always meaningful and rewarding. I’m grateful to be part of a field that leads with compassion, empathy, and purpose—and to be part of a team that works every day to provide the right care at the right time for the right reason 💙

Our next Social Work Highlight is Chloe! See wha she has to say!

Hi, I’m Chloe Brown, a Resource Specialist in the Social Work Department at PACE Central Michigan!

In my role, I help ensure participants have all the necessary documentation completed and submitted on time so they can remain enrolled in PACE, and I assist them in connecting with additional resources when needed.

I really value the one-on-one time I get with participants and enjoy building personal connections while getting to know their individual needs and stories. Being able to support others in a meaningful way is one of the most rewarding parts of my work.

Outside of work, I enjoy crafting, baking, and spending time with my loved ones!
