Illinois Cognitive Resources Network VISION: The Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) will make Illinois a national leader in the development and implementation of effective community-based models for adults to access research, education, training, and support services to promote cognitive health and quality of life. MISSION: The Collaboration will leverage strengths of Alzheimer’s Association chapters, Alzheimer’s Disease Assistance Centers, and organizations in the Aging, Disability, and Public Health Networks to optimize the cognitive and functional well- being of Illinois residents and their families. Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) 29

Organization Each group will give something of value to help other collaboration members and the Illinois residents they serve and each group will receive something back to meet its individual goals.

Overview Why the Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) came together What has kept the ICRN together Progress to date in helping individuals, families and professionals access research, education, training and support services Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) 31
32
Illinois Cognitive Resources Network -- Why Many residents in Illinois feel disconnected when obtaining services regarding cognitive health. Also, many service providers feel disconnected from other service providers. They feel that their services are not being fully utilized. It is not clear how best to translate national agendas and efforts into statewide and local community efforts. Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) 32

1. Develop and maintain dementia-capable access and referral services; 2. Train Aging Network and Adult Protective Services personnel, SHIP sites, Supportive Living Program facilities, and Managed Care agencies on the components of dementia-capable service delivery systems; 3. Implement Options Counseling services on a statewide basis; 4. Conduct Savvy Caregiver training in selected Planning and Service Areas; Dementia-Capable State Grant Objectives Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) 41
42
5. Link individuals with dementia and their caregivers to a comprehensive set of dementia-capable services including care transition services; 6. Streamline the dementia capable public program eligibility determination process; 7. Develop a data collection and quality assurance system; and, 8. Ensure sustainability of the dementia-capable home and community-based service system. Dementia-Capable State Grant Objectives (Cont.) Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) 42
43
The Illinois Department of Health, in partnership with other key stakeholders, will implement three of the six priority action items from The Healthy Brain Initiative Roadmap in Illinois and update a central public webpage. 1. Use data to enhance awareness of cognitive loss burdens for persons and their caregivers. 2. Develop strategies to ensure expertise in cognitive health by assessing competencies in state funded organizations 3. Prioritize implementation of recommendations in the Illinois Alzheimer’s Disease State Plan One-year grant from the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors’ “Opportunities Grants to Implement Selected Action Items from The Healthy Brain Initiative: The Public Health Road Map, 2013-2018” (2014-2015) Healthy Brain Initiative Implementation Illinois Cognitive Resources Network (ICRN) 43
44
Conclusions State-wide, diverse and inclusive, “community of care” groups are needed to best meet the needs of persons living with or at risk for cognitive loss and their support systems. Early trust-building and open-communication efforts can lead to a significant process of improvement. We hope Illinois Cognitive Resources Network can serve as a continuing example of a model that can be translated to other States/communities. We are continuing to learn and evolve together in order to improve the quality of life for residents of Illinois.

Guiding Policies Massachusetts Alzheimer’s Plan Recommendations Improve access to services and information for people with Alzheimer's Improve and expand support and education for Family Caregivers Develop an infrastructure for enhanced quality of services within the medical community Improve public awareness surrounding risk factors and risk reduction for Alzheimer's disease Create a set of statewide recommendations, guidelines and minimum standards surrounding quality of care in all care settings 49
50
Guiding Policies (cont.) Standards of Dementia Care A set of standards requiring that: All home care consumers are screened for dementia and depression Consumers with dementia and their caregivers are provided with a risk assessment, provided with a care plan with services that address their dementia, and referred for medical care All home care staff must receive specialized dementia training under the standards. 50
51
Dementia Screening Tool Word recall exercise Clock drawing exercise Scale of 1-5: 0, 1 or 2 indicates a possible memory impairment 51
52
Results Since rollout in Spring 2011: Program managers and nurse managers trained 40,000 unique consumers screened Approximately 25 percent scored a two or lower and were referred for further diagnosis and services Letter sent, with permission, to Primary Care Provider 52
53
Results (cont.) All low scorers received a risk assessment, including determination of measures to minimize risk and identification of resources to implement those measures Average cost of home care services increased from $377 to $539 — 43 percent. 53
