Mount Sinai Medical Center is pleased to announce the opening of Mount Sinai Eldercare in their Hialeah location. A licensed CMS Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), Mount Sinai Eldercare provides comprehensive medical and social services to eligible participants.
Mount Sinai Eldercare is home to an interdisciplinary team of health care professionals who work with patients and families to provide comprehensive care to each participant. Services include, but are not limited to, adult day care, primary and specialty medical care, rehabilitation and therapy services, nursing support, medications, diagnostic tests (laboratory and imaging), nutritional counseling and meals, home care services, and transportation to and from the center and medical appointments.
Mount Sinai’s Eldercare location occupies more than 12,000 square feet of space, which includes a dedicated clinic, exam rooms, and the newest diagnostic equipment. The brand-new space also includes a dedicated 2,000-square-foot physical and occupational therapy area, outfitted with the latest in state-of-the-art equipment.
The Mount Sinai Eldercare facility was designed with participants in mind. The expansive activity and dining area allows individuals to engage, socialize, relax, and participate in a variety of activities and meals. Breakfast and hot lunch are served daily, with a rotating activity calendar that includes chair yoga, arts and crafts, bingo, checkers, puzzles, jumbo bowling, and more.
Led by Clifford E. Medina, MD, who serves as the Medical Director of the program and Chief of Mount Sinai’s Division of General Medicine, Eldercare combines the benefits of an all-inclusive program with the accessibility of primary and specialty care offices and an emergency center within the same building. This gives participants access to expert and wide-ranging care for all their needs.
