The Kinship PACE Kokomo program is part of the national PACE model, which stands for “Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly.” Their mission is centered around helping adults age 55+ with complex healthcare needs remain safely and independently in their own homes and communities instead of moving into long-term nursing facilities.
The Kokomo center, located on South Reed Road, brings together coordinated medical care, therapy, transportation, nutrition services, social activities, home care support, and specialty partnerships all under one collaborative healthcare model.
What makes the Kinship PACE model so unique is that it is deeply relationship-driven. Their interdisciplinary teams work together to care for the whole person — not just a diagnosis. That includes physical health, emotional well-being, mobility, nutrition, social connection, and quality of life.
As one of their dental office partners, LADD Dental Group has the opportunity to play an incredibly meaningful role in that mission.
Dental care is often one of the most overlooked parts of senior healthcare, yet oral health directly impacts:
- Nutrition and the ability to eat comfortably
- Confidence and social engagement
- Infection prevention
- Chronic disease management
- Overall quality of life
By partnering with Kinship PACE, we are able to help ensure that seniors in our communities continue receiving compassionate, high-quality dental care as part of their overall healthcare journey.
We are especially grateful because programs like Kinship PACE are intentional about building true healthcare collaboration. They understand that excellent patient outcomes happen when medical providers, therapists, caregivers, transportation teams, and dental professionals all work together for the benefit of the patient.
At LADD Dental Group, community partnership has always been at the heart of what we do. Being trusted as a dental partner for the Kinship PACE Kokomo program is an honor because it allows us to serve some of the most deserving members of our community with dignity, compassion, and continuity of care.
