Caregiving Tips

Guidance on how to properly care for your loved ones as they navigate through the aging process

Can't attend an appointment? Record conversations with their doctor and playback when convenient.

Technology can help when you or a family member cannot be present at your loved one’s doctor appointment. With the doctor’s permission, you can have them record their conversation on a digital recorder or a smartphone. When convenient, play the discussion back to hear exactly what was said during the doctor’s office visit.
