Simple family system

Use the same notes every week

One Notebook

Keep notes in one notebook, phone note, or printed sheet so details do not get scattered.

One Daily Check

Pick a simple time to check food, water, cleanup, rest, and comfort.

One Backup Contact

Keep the main local contact and after-hours contact easy for the family to find.

Use notes before guessing

Clear notes help families explain what changed and choose the next responsible step.
