OVERVIEW:
Carolina SeniorCare is a PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) based in Lexington North Carolina which provides services to residents in Davidson, Davie, Rowan, and Iredell counties.
PACE programs operate in 33 states with the mission to provide comprehensive, personalized healthcare services including primary care to elderly people 55+ who are at risk for needing placement in a skilled nursing facility.
