Strategies smart caregivers swear by
There's a lot to keep track of as a caregiver. 4 ways to do it better
- Use apps. There are many apps available that assist caregivers in staying organized. Carely and Caring Village are a few. Find what works best for your needs.
- Schedule regular family meetings. Talk about who can help with what tasks and keep a task list in places everyone can access such as a shared Google file.
- Organize pills in a pill case. Or have a home health agency come in weekly to do this for you.
- Use a dry-erase board to track activities. For some, a board is simpler than an app for keeping things straight.
