The Managing Dementia in Older Adults Using the 4Ms Framework: A Case Study provides certified nursing assistants and home health aides with an understanding of how the 4Ms framework is incorporated into the plan of care for older adults experiencing dementia and cognitive impairment.

Learners will be able to discuss how social workers and home health aides can integrate the 4Ms in the care plan of older adults, explain how to provide person-centered care based on what matters to an older adult, identify medication supports for older adults based on their specific needs, recognize changes in mentation (mind) in older adults, and discuss the importance of older adults remaining mobile.
