Question about documents to have on hand for elderly parent Hello, I had a couple of questions on what documents you might have needed both in an emergency and non-emergency situation when you are a primary caregiver for your parent. I understand you need to have a “Medical Emergency Packet”. I found a list of documents here: https://www.agingcare.com/articles/the-emergency-medical-file-every-caregiver-should-create-428239.htm My questions: 1. Apart from the docs listed in the link above, what else have you found useful to have on hand? 2. Do you have this information electronically or in print? If electronically, has there been any issue with showing or sharing this information to others (e.g., paramedics, doctors, hospital staff)? For context, I have built an app to help my husband manage care for his mother, who has multiple serious health conditions. So far, we never needed more than her ID, insurance and a medical proxy. However, we know it is best practice to have such docs on hand and especially in an emergency, you shouldn’t have to remember to carry a binder of docs with you. It would be just so much easier to have it on your phone to then quickly email/display. I want to add this feature to the app to help my husband, as well as other friends and family who are using this app to manage their caregiving responsibilities. I would really appreciate your input. If you want more info, please feel free to DM me. Thanks!
