What is GUIDE?
CMS offers a new model of care
Ceresti has been selected to participate in the Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Innovation Center. The goal of the GUIDE Model is to increase access to much-needed support for people living with dementia and their caregivers.
About GUIDEActivated caregivers reduce avoidable hospitalizations
GUIDE requires a team
GUIDE advances key goals of the National Alzheimer’s Project Act (NAPA) by facilitating a comprehensive package of care coordination and management, caregiver education and support, and respite services, which must include a family caregiver in the care team.
Why should you care about GUIDE?

The U.S population is aging, and the number of people living with dementia will continue to increase
As many as 50% of people living with dementia are not currently diagnosed
