Caring for an aging parent? When a medical emergency happens, the last thing you want to do is scramble for vital paperwork. Take an hour this week to get organized. Having all medical information at your fingertips brings immense peace of mind!

Tips for Keeping Medical Information Organized:
📝Create a Core Folder (Physical or Digital): Include copies of IDs, insurance cards, and a list of all current doctors (with phone numbers).
📝Keep a Current Medication List: This is the most crucial piece! List the drug name, dosage, frequency, and why they take it. Update it immediately after any doctor's visit or prescription change.
📝Maintain a Health History Timeline: Note all major diagnoses, surgeries, and allergies (including medication allergies).
📝Use a Shared Digital Tool: Consider apps or shared documents (like Google Docs) that you and other caregivers can access 24/7.

Being prepared means better, faster care when it matters most.

"This is a well-earned, deserved 5-star by Geras Home Care. I am the primary caregiver for my elderly father. Late last year, he was diagnosed with mild to moderate dementia. The care he needed began to quickly exceed my capabilities, as I also have a full-time job. My family reached out to Geras and they were Aces.

I worked with Kathy and Olivia, who are simply fantastic. They did a patient assessment and made sure the home was safe (which it naturally would be). They were attentive and compassionate to what I needed and more importantly what my father needed while I was at work. I told them what I needed and what to expect and the care was customized. Nydiera was assigned as my dad's caretaker and she is magnificent. She quickly became not only his caretaker but his daily companion.

She not only took care of him but also helped me out with keeping my house tidy as my time was limited. Caring for an elderly parent is one of the most challenging and trying tests that Life will throw at you. Geras not only helped my dad, they helped me. I highly highly recommend them and cannot praise them enough. There was no downside as far as I'm concerned. Well worth it. And well done." - Michael G.

Thank you Michael.
