    Friendly people, it feels like clean environment and I like the classes they tech, and all the programing. And the dance.

    Sheesh, you should'a seen the place before the remodel. What an upgrade!…read more I lived nearly a stone's throw from this Community Center for a good decade, so I have a take on the neighborhood that influences my rating. First, the obvious accolades: This enormous, modern-ish facility offers plenty of the communal goods it was rebuilt to offer. Senior citizens own mornings and early afternoons, and men of all ages crowd the basketball courts later in the day -- when we're not in the midst of a pandemic, that is. There's a game room, lots of meeting rooms, and a good exercise room... which is where they can do better. When our oldest was 16 years of age, she attempted to use the exercise equipment and was told the policy was 18+. The Duranes neighborhood, nearly every block, is classic old Albuquerque planning: very agrarian, incredibly narrow streets, and no sidewalks. Running and even walking anywhere is dangerous. This Community Center offers an exception to that rule, and it should expand its age restrictions.

    The Los Duranes Community Center is tucked away directly between the river and the IPCC. It is…read moredescribed as a hidden gem, and that is accurate! Typical of our Community Centers, Los Duranes is open Mon-Sat and offers after-school programs, senior meals, a variety of fitness classes, and an open gym for 18+. My company recently used the community center for an all-day event, and the kids working the desk were attentive and helpful to both our organization and the public. I recommend locals check out what their community center has to offer!

    InnovAge PACE of Albuquerque failed me in every way. In the 2 months I was enrolled with them I was…read moreneglected where I lost both dignity and self-respect. I'm a quadriplegic (C 7-8 Spinal Cord Injury) that's confined to a wheelchair that tries to be as independent and out-going as possible, but PACE creates an atmosphere of dependence. Don't believe them or their buses when they claim that their program is about YOUR TERMS and INDEPENDENCE because neither is true. I better pause for a moment and say that if you are in need of day care during weekdays and have other help at home then it may be ok for you or a loved one, but I would be cautious. Back to me, in the 35 years on wheels it is absolutely the worst healthcare system that I have ever experienced. Even though I strive on being independent but it's just me and there's many things I just can't do. In the 2 months I received an average of 1 shower a week (they promised 2 but rarely showed up on Friday that leaves me at home for the weekend because of my smell), they didn't complete 1 load of laundry and I average 1 a day (but promised 1 load a week and light house cleaning once every other week, WOW!), they swept twice but never mopped, did some dishes once, vacuumed once, never cleaned the bathroom or shower, did change the bed twice but obviously no detail cleaning. More things about them: whether you take a bus to their facility or stay at home, you belong to them between 8 am to 4 pm weekdays. If you go there, they make a run for 4-5 passengers any time after 8 (better be ready at all times because they only give you approximately 5 minutes heads up) and 10 am. They make the return trip starting at 3:30 pm so they can charge a full day of day care. If you stay home your either waiting for home services to possibly show up or supplies (which I received about half of) showing up out of the blue, they give about a half hour notice on that. FEEL THE CONFINEMENT? Oh, there's much more. The bus at first used to show everyday whether I asked them to or not, I truly believe they charge the taxpayer either way. It doesn't do any good to find your own transportation there because they don't make appointments, you still have to wait for your turn, again charging more day care. Be prepared to play phone tag (taking up more time) because you usually have to leave a message because they rarely pick up their phones, they are usually just wondering around the building trying to look busy. More wasted taxpayer money! I suffered through 3 UTI's in the 2 months I was there because the doctor (who thinks she's the greatest ever and obviously doesn't believe in preventive care) wouldn't approve the pre-lubed sterile catheters I've been using for years or any sterile catheters at all. Instead, I was caught reusing catheters with KY. It hurt so bad to use them and high risk for a false entry, I had one back in the early days reusing catheters with KY that required a 125-mile ambulance trip to take me to a urologist surgeon. Almost bled to death, but she (doctor) didn't care about the risk. I'll stop there but the whole experience created more stress and depression again causing low self-esteem, loss of dignity and more confinement (dependency) than I've ever experienced. It was such a relief to disenroll with them. I can't prove possible fraud, but the rest are facts so please be aware if you're thinking about enrolling in InnovAge PACE. Thank you for reading.
