Get organized before you need the answers.
The Caregiving Essentials Checklist gives family caregivers one practical place to gather the medical, legal, financial, emergency, household, digital, and personal information that can be difficult to find when the pressure is on.
Gather the information that keeps family caregiving moving.
Work through one section at a time. The checklist helps you see what you already have, what is missing, where important items are kept, and who can reach them.
Medical Essentials
Medication lists, allergies, diagnoses, doctors and specialists, pharmacy information, recent hospitalizations, devices, and baseline care needs.
Legal Documents
Power of attorney, healthcare proxy, advance directives, HIPAA releases, wills or trusts, document locations, and key contacts.
Financial & Insurance
Insurance information, household bills, income sources, financial contacts, account types, and secure access planning.
Emergency Readiness
Emergency contacts, preferred hospital, document locations, backup plans, pets, transportation, equipment, and a simple go-bag.
Home & Daily Life
Daily routines, mobility and personal-care needs, food preferences, utilities, transportation, home access, and the people who check in.
Digital Life & Account Access
Device access, recovery contacts, email access planning, password-manager emergency access, online portals, and digital legacy tools.
The Personal Side
Care wishes, comfort routines, important people, memories, traditions, preferences, and what a good day looks like to your loved one.
You do not have to finish it in a day. You just have to start.
The checklist is designed to be worked through at your own pace. A few completed boxes today can mean fewer things to hunt for later.
