PARTICIPATION

 

How Can Participating in GUIDE Help you?

Mildred is an 86-year-old woman living alone with moderate dementia. She has regular appointments with her primary care doctor, dentist, and optometrist, and gets her medications from a local pharmacist. Mildred’s caregiver is her 35-year-old granddaughter, Anne, who visits daily to help with housekeeping and personal care tasks. Anne is a mom with a full-time job.

Challenges Before GUIDE:

  • Mildred was experiencing worsening symptoms related to her dementia

  • Mildred’s primary care doctor wasn’t equipped to treat her dementia

  • Mildred needed help getting to appointments and taking medications

  • Anne was burnt out as a caregiver and wanted to find Mildred a nursing home, but it was too costly

With Help & Support From GUIDE:

  • Mildred learns about GUIDE from her doctor, and starts working with an interdisciplinary care team

  • Mildred’s care navigator connects her to transportation services

  • Anne gets caregiver training to cope with Mildred’s symptoms and her own stress

  • Mildred received GUIDE Respite Services, allowing Anne to take a break
