Rehabilitative Aide-PACE Program (Riverside)

Community health is about more than just vaccines and checkups. It’s about giving people the resources they need to live their best lives.

At Neighborhood, this is our vision. A community where everyone is healthy and happy. We’re with you every step of the way, with the care you need for each of life’s chapters.

At Neighborhood, we are Better Together.

As a private, non-profit 501(C) (3) community health organization, we serve over 400,000 medical, dental, and behavioral health visits from more than 90k people annually.

We do this in pursuit of our mission to improve the health and happiness of the communities we serve by providing quality care to all, regardless of situation or circumstance.

We have been doing this since 1969 and it is our employees that make this mission a reality. Regardless of the role, our team focuses on being compassionate, having integrity, being professional, always collaborating, and consistently going above and beyond.

If that sounds like an organization you want to be a part of, we would love to have you.
