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.
Who and when
The agenda · 15 minutes
The same three questions, one decision, then who does what. By phone, video or group chat.
5. Who does what · 2 minutes
| Action | Who | By when |
|---|---|---|
Call a longer family conversation when
- something big changes in your parent’s home or routine;
- someone can’t keep up their share any more;
- a decision needs everyone, and your parent, in the room.
Doing it by group chat
Post the three questions on the same day each week. Everyone answers in one message; whoever runs it that week posts the decision and the actions.
