Mission

Innovation Network of New Mexico aims to advocate and facilitate deep, systemic change in long-term care and transformation in our culture of aging. Innovation Network of New Mexico seeks to achieve this mission by:

• Offering resources for those interested in culture change       
• Providing opportunities to learn about culture change
• Promoting culture change in long-term care
• Creating an environment for networking, problem solving and support for individuals and organizations involved in the culture change journey
• Identifying and promoting transformations in practice, services, public policy and research by educating local and state officials, regulators, surveyors, and the general public and community about culture change

Culture change promotes a resident-centered model of care vs. a traditional, institutional model of care. Empowering long term care residents to be the primary decision makers about their health care in an environment that reflects the comfort, safety and privacy of home is key to the resident-centered model and improves quality of life.

Innovation Network of New Mexico has formed a board of directors to assist in bringing the mission and vision of this network to New Mexicans.  We hope providers, legislators, regulators, ombudsmen and others will look to this organization to find new ways to improve the care for elders living in New Mexico long-term care facilities.
