A Storage Box – In a fireproof safe.

Simplify Caring, Your Online Simple Office

“When looking at the best way to organize all of my parents’ information, I decided on a combination of paper records and online records. A good old-fashioned storage box with important passwords printed out, and all pertinent information related to them and their household sorted into various file folders, and extra sets of labelled keys seemed like the way to go for me as a caregiver. I am considering getting a fire-proof home safe to keep everything secure, just for peace of mind.” (boldface text are mine)

I just came across this in a caregiver blog post and immediately felt a twitch coming on. OMG! The first image in my mind was someone trying to keep important caregiver files, contact lists, notes… with them all the time. Like, in the back seat of your car.
This is why we built the Simplify Caring App!

Problem:

Someone needs/wants a copy of a document that’s in your storage box. So now you need to make a copy somewhere and scan it or fax it or bring it there in person.

Problem:

Someone wants to be part of your care-team and help out. How do you share the To-Do’s for today, for tomorrow, for next week? Phonecall? Google Calendar shared?

Problem:

You snap a quick photo while you’re at the care home. How will you share it? Will that photo be findable in 2 months? 2 years? Will you remember what app you chose to share it on and re-find it?

Problem:

You get evacuated. You rush to the hospital from somewhere besides home. You are on a 2 day trip and get a phonecall from the care home… Where is your box of information?

Solution:

We built an online ‘storage box’ to solve an old problem. Keeping everything organized in one, always accessible, safe place. Simplify Caring App is an organizer made to be intuitive to use, for you and anyone you invite to your team. You get a free trial and then pay monthly for as long as you need it. When you’re done, you’re done and you cancel the subscription. Easy.

Look at the screen, just below. This is what you’ll see on your laptop or iPad. Anywhere you have wifi, you have this with you. Imagine waiting for an intake in a reception area chair and knowing you’ll need a document or important contact info. Think you can find it quickly on this screen? We made it so you can.

Passwords

Oh, and a word about passwords. On the Simplify Caring App HELP website, help.simplifycaring.com, see our best practices recommendations. Select FAQ on the menu and see WE RECOMMEND, and then KEEPERSECURITY.COM. We’ve been using KeeperSecurity for years. It has my company’s passwords, client passwords, banking logins… in about 30 client folders, each with 3-5 or more passwords. I try to keep things simple, strong and safe. We built the Simplify Caring App that way too.

By the way, I checked the KeeperSecurity website today and see they have a Free Trial and recently posted a banner saying 1/2 off Black Friday sale. If your passwords are written down somewhere and you consider this safe, think again(?), and fix that please.
(Nope. I don’t get a kickback for your signup with KeeperSecurity)
