How the GUIDE program can help
Mildred is an 86-year-old woman who lives alone and has moderate dementia. She attends regular appointments with her primary care doctor, dentist and optometrist, and she receives her medications from a local pharmacist. Her caregiver, Anne, is Mildred’s 35-year-old granddaughter, who visits daily to assist with household chores and personal care tasks. Anne is a mother with a full-time job.
Challenges before GUIDE
- Mildred was experiencing worsening symptoms related to her dementia.
- Time constraints of PCP made care coordination inefficient and frustrating.
- She 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.
Help and 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 receives GUIDE respite services, allowing Anne to take a break.
