Stage 1: Expectant Care Partner

You are an Expectant Care Partner if…

You are aware that you may find yourself in a care partner role for a family member or friend in the future and are preparing for that day.

To prepare, your task is to think about what information and resources you will need. You may be wondering about preparing:

  • Financially
  • Legally
  • Emotionally

To help you think about what information you might want for your situation, please look at the resources below. Please know that you can book a free 30 minute consultation to speak with me about your specific needs.
