KABC Channel 7 Eyewitness News featured WelbeHealth this week in its "Community" section, honoring National Health Center Week and celebrating the one-year impact of our North Hollywood location. We celebrated this milestone with a Community Open House, which reflects our dedication to continue to serve vulnerable senior populations throughout California. The event was a testament to our commitment to connecting with vulnerable populations and community health while featuring impactful testimonials, Medi-Cal application support, and essential health services like blood pressure checks. Our doors are always open to those who need us the most, and special events like these help us reach even more vulnerable seniors. Thank you to everyone who joined us and to our teams on the ground for providing an engaging and rewarding experience. #NationalHealthCenterWeek #seniorcare #PACE

WelbeHealth is thrilled about the progress the larger Senator Elizabeth Dole 21st Century Veterans Healthcare and Benefits Improvement Act is making. This act will enable more veterans to access care in their homes and communities, including local Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). It will also support veterans in finding organizations like WelbeHealth. WelbeHealth External Affairs Director Lisa Ard, MPA, expressed, "WelbeHealth applauds this bipartisan legislative effort that will expand access for US veterans to the PACE program. As an organization, we deeply value the sacrifices that veterans have made on behalf of our country and believe it’s vital that we uphold the sacred contract we have with them. That contract includes a commitment that, whenever possible, we ensure that they can continue to live in their community while having access to excellent wraparound healthcare services.” #seniorhealthcare #veterans #PACE #expandaccess https://lnkd.in/eZhMCSFH

Governor Gavin Newsom officially declared May 2024 "Older Californians Month"! This proclamation recognizes the invaluable contributions of California's nearly nine million older residents who enrich our communities with their diverse experiences and cultures. By 2030, one in four Californians will be 60 or older, highlighting the significance of this demographic in our state. This proclamation aligns closely with WelbeHealth's mission to serve vulnerable seniors and create a more inclusive and supportive environment for older adults and their caregivers. As we continue our efforts to provide high-quality care and support for our seniors, this serves as a reminder of the importance of fostering connections and combating loneliness and isolation among older adults. Let's celebrate the older adults in our lives and communities this month and beyond, recognizing their contributions and working towards a more vibrant and equitable community for our seniors! #OlderAmericansMonth #WelbeHealth #CaliforniaCommunity #InclusionAndSupport #seniorhealthcare https://lnkd.in/g3kvVa4w

WelbeHealth held a Community Open House in our San Jose Center last week. We welcomed the community including potential participants, partners, and team members for a day of connection and engagement. It was a beautiful showcase of WelbeHealth's mission in action. Highlights of the day included engaging activities such as meeting our care team members, center tours including our occupational therapy, medical and dental exam rooms, a potting plant activity, and assistance with Medi-Cal applications. In addition, the community partner reception, held on the rooftop, was a wonderful opportunity to connect with partners like Sutter Health - Bay Area, LifeSTEPS, John Stewart and Company, EAH, MidPen Housing Corporation, Alzheimer's Association®NorCAL, Rocketship Public Schools, and more. #seniorhealthcare #bayarea #sanjose #communityparterships #qualitycare

WelbeHealth reposted this
In mid-March, a Senate bill (DUALS Act of 2024) was introduced to significantly expand access to the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). In this month’s Healthcare Musings, Amy Shin provides some background on PACE and how it addresses the senior healthcare crisis. You can read the full article on our website https://wp.me/p9aMrG-J9

WelbeHealth recently supported legislation that would “improve care coordination for dual-eligible beneficiaries and expand the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly to a larger share of people." “The DUALS Act marks a crucial stride forward in expanding access to care coordination for frail dual eligible beneficiaries through an innovative model called PACE,” Amy Shin, WelbeHealth’s chief mission officer, said. “This bill is thoughtful and represents a significant opportunity to enhance access to the gold standard for quality of care for our most frail and vulnerable seniors.” Take a look at the full article from McKnight's Long-Term Care News for more information on the legislation. #PACE #seniorcare #expandingaccess #healthcare https://lnkd.in/gnp8bS7i
