Postcard c.1900
Today’s Caregiver Magazine online has a good set of tips for caregivers to help get a little more organized for the new year. It looks like a good list of new years resolutions.
Some of the great tips include keeping complete records of medicines/interactions, doctor appointments and medical information… which is a better way of saying that you’ll get more organized.
They also recommend making sure that there is an up-to-date advanced directive and last will and testament. You might also consider a Five Wishes document.
If it hasn’t been done lately, have an insurance analysis done for home/renter, life and other insurance.
Their last recommendation is to clean out the medicine cabinet of all expired and unused medicines. If you do find some, please check with your local recycling center, drug store, or hospital to determine the proper way to dispose of them.
