What Matters Most - Direct Care Workers

A tele-education project orienting direct care workers to the principles of age-friendly care

Welcome to "What Matters Most"!

If you care for individuals with dementia, delirium, or depression (The "3Ds"), We are excited to offer you a short, video-based education program that will develop your skills! Developed by experts at Johns Hopkins University, Penn State, and Virginia Commonwealth University, "What Matters Most' is an opportunity to improve the quality of life for older adults—guided by the IHI Age-Friendly 4 Ms (What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility). We aim to foster professional partnerships between nursing homes and academic health centers, enhance educational opportunities, and ultimately improve older adults' health outcomes and quality of life. Thank you for joining us on this vital mission!
