Maplewood Senior Living and Harmonic Health Join Forces to Support Efforts to Improve Dementia Care through CMS GUIDE Model

Designed to support people living with dementia and their caregivers, this new partnership aims to improve quality of care for residents and their caregivers

WESTPORT, Conn., Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Leading national senior living provider, Maplewood Senior Living is proud to announce its partnership with Harmonic Health to participate in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model. This innovative 8-year program is set to redefine dementia care by enhancing service and providing unparalleled support for both individuals living with dementia and their caregivers.

The GUIDE Model, launched on July 1, 2024, is part of a broader initiative by the Biden Administration to increase access to high-quality care for people living with dementia and support their caregivers. The GUIDE Model focuses on personalized care plans, improved care coordination, caregiver education, and access to specialized resources tailored to dementia patients’ unique needs. It aims to enhance the quality of care and support for caregivers, ultimately helping to delay the progression of dementia and the need for long-term nursing home care. By participating in this program, Maplewood Senior Living reaffirms its commitment to innovation and excellence in senior care, particularly for those living with dementia.

“At Maplewood Senior Living, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care for our residents living with dementia,” said Tino Popescu, Vice President of Clinical Services at Maplewood Senior Living. “Collaborating with Harmonic Health to participate in Medicare’s GUIDE Model aligns perfectly with our mission to transform the lives of our residents and their families.”

Participation in the GUIDE Model will bring several significant benefits to Maplewood residents and their families including enhanced, individual care plans and assessments for residents, access to specialized services and an overall improved quality of life, potentially delaying the need for long-term nursing home care. This partnership also represents an opportunity for Maplewood Senior Living caregivers to provide improved care delivery and exposure to cutting-edge dementia care techniques.

“We are excited to embark on this journey with Harmonic Health and CMS,” Popescu added. “This partnership will enable us to provide an unprecedented level of care for our residents living with dementia and support for their families.”
