Urgent change is required to transform nursing homes into sites of clinical excellence, where we can offer the best of healthcare in a home-like setting. Ariadne Labs has committed to support a year of design work to develop a new model of care in nursing homes, including a suite of tools that supports structural changes in care delivery with expected positive outcomes for both staff and residents. Our model is built on a framework of integrating the best of healthcare with the best of home in these long term care facilities.
