What is Culture Change?

“The new culture of aging involves a transformation based on person-directed values and person-directed practices, where the voices of elders and those working closest with them are honored and respected…an inclusive grassroots movement where new ways of de-institutionalizing services and individualizing care are shared freely.”  Pioneer Network
