Innovation in Dementia Care
Teresa’s Place™ Adult Daycare Center is developing innovative community-based solutions for individuals living with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Our center is the proposed pilot site for several integrated care frameworks designed to improve dementia care delivery and caregiver support in Illinois, including:
  • Teresa's Place SUCCESS Framework™ – A structured program philosophy guiding individualized engagement and support for participants living with moderate to severe dementia.
• Illinois Adult Care Plan™ (IACP) – A structured care planning framework designed to align programming, goals, and caregiver collaboration based on a participant’s stage of dementia.
• One Door Illinois™ (ODI) – A proposed centralized navigation concept designed to simplify how families access dementia-related services and community supports.
Together, these initiatives aim to improve care coordination, enhance caregiver support, and strengthen community-based dementia care systems across Illinois.
