Business Institute Webinar: The Role of CBOs and CBO Networks in Comprehensive Dementia Care Models
The Aging and Disability Business Institute (Business Institute) at USAging is hosting a webinar March 24, "The Role of CBOs and CBO Networks in Comprehensive Dementia Care Models."
Community-based organizations (CBOs) play an important role in meeting the needs of individuals living with dementia and their families. This webinar will discuss the need to build dementia care models to support this growing population as well as explain recommendations to enhance dementia care and payment policies in traditional Medicare, with a particular focus on the need to develop mechanisms to pay CBOs for services provided to individuals living with dementia and their caregivers.
Panelists include:
- Nora Super of the Milken Institute who will present the findings of the new Alliance to Improve Dementia Care report, “Scaling Comprehensive Dementia-Care Models.”
- Mark Cullen from Trellis, a AAA in Minnesota, will discuss Juniper, a statewide network of CBOs that delivers evidence-based health promotion programs, including challenges and lessons learned, and how they are evolving their network to deliver dementia-focused services.
- Dawn Simonson, president and CEO of Trellis, whose priorities are to develop networks and other partnerships that support older adults to live healthy and secure lives at home via services and programs that benefit them and their families in the Twin Cities region and throughout Minnesota.
