It is common at Caring with Grace that our care managers play the role of "boots on the ground" and facilitate communication for many families who are not geographically close together. Building a support network of caring individuals is key.

Building a team, communicating well, and getting access to medical, legal and financial information are key to long-distance caregiving.
