What is
GUIDE?

The Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model is a new Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) program that aims to improve quality of life for people living with dementia, reduce strain on their unpaid caregivers, and enable people living with dementia to remain in their homes and communities. This model provides individuals and families with an interdisciplinary team to provide care navigation, education, support and respite care.
