Being organized!
When tossed into the role of caregiver it may be at the very start of things. Coordinate appointments, find out which home care agency provides the services you think you’ll need, get quotes for plumbing repairs at your parents’ place, find a yard care company, begin decluttering their basement and garage… Suddenly it’s time to talk with the bookkeeper about their year-end filing and you need receipts. Then it may be time to help them move closer to where you live in another state or province. Do they have enough documentation to get on a plane? Now the house has to be sold, but let’s fix the roof first… It gets knee deep quick.
Happily you are not alone. You find a pro or have siblings to help with it all.
Wouldn’t it make sense to have the appointment calendar, to do list, a list of contacts you can’t forget, a safe place to put the documents for easy retrieval whenever you need them?
Simplify Caring is intended for only this. You are a hands-on person doing what has to get done with others who are helping. Simplify Caring will be ready for release after Christmas. The final version is in full-on development and we’re having a great time putting it all together. It is super helpful, super useful, super easy for everyone to use, reliable and intended to help you focus on what’s important.
