Empowering caregivers

Welcome! We're proud to launch a new site where we share practical information for people who act as caregivers for elderly friends and relatives. We know from first-hand experience how hard - and often rewarding - this work is. 

For many of us, caregiving is overwhelming because we aren't professional caregivers and we need a little practical help from others who have walked this road. Here's the first set of practical, been-there-done-that tips you'll find here:

• Estate planning documents: a   straightforward way to get documents created and notarized
• Aging in place: some practical things you can do to help make the age-at-home experience a little safer
• Driving: some things you can do when the person you're caring for wants to drive (but shouldn't)
• Transportation: working with city and county programs to arrange transportation
