✨3 simple steps when thinking about memory care✨

Create a care directive. This is a simple document that explains your LO’s diagnosis, medications, contacts, doctors, present level of functioning, and needs. It doesn’t need to be a lengthy document. It just needs to outline the above-mentioned items.

Visit your LO often. When you’re a familiar face, the facility likely won’t play about your LO. Now, don’t go at the same time every day. Switch that thing up.

Create a plan for emergencies. Keep your contacts updated and create a plan. What does your LO want? What hospital are they going to? Who should be the first point of contact?

This isn’t everything you need to do, but it’s a start.
