WelbeHealth Hosts Open House to Celebrate One-Year Anniversary

Health provider helps meet the needs of low-income seniors in the valley | August 21, 2024

WelbeHealth, one of California’s leading health providers for low-income seniors through the Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), invited community members to an open house on Aug. 7 celebrating their one-year anniversary of expanding services to the underserved metro area of North Hollywood. 

Seniors and their families had an opportunity to learn about the comprehensive services available to help seniors age comfortably at home instead of a nursing home. Attendees met the WelbeHealth team, connected with other seniors in the community and toured the facility. 

Dr. Danielle Basurco, associate medical director for WelbeHealth, and WelbeHealth clients presented a brief program, addressing the health provider’s programs and benefits for older adults. Additionally, the open house offered Medi-Cal application assistance, blood pressure screenings, housing education, other valuable resources and raffle prizes. 

The WelbeHealth in North Hollywood center features a cafeteria, spaces for recreational and social activities, common areas with beautiful decor, and traditional medical spaces for primary care services, dental care and physical therapy.

California has the highest number of adults ages 65 and older in the country and has one of the nation’s highest rates of senior poverty. PACE organizations like WelbeHealth play a crucial role in providing comprehensive and affordable programs for older adults with complex health needs who want to age at home at little or no cost to them.

WelbeHealth North Hollywood is located at 11633 Victory Blvd., Suite 100 in North Hollywood
