Ground rules
- Make it with your parent, not about them. Ask what they want shared, and with whom.
- Write down logistics, not medical details. Note that an appointment exists, not what it’s for.
- Never write passwords, PINs or account numbers on these pages.
- Agree who can see it, and where a printed copy is kept.
Handle with care. Phone numbers, spare-key holders and where papers are kept are personal information. Agree who should have a copy, and where a printed copy lives. This is a planning note: it doesn’t control who can see it.
