Care Passport
A one-page snapshot for emergencies and new caregivers — who the person is, how they communicate, what helps, what to avoid, and who to call. Print it, fill it in, keep it on the fridge.
What Works Sheet
A first-shift handoff for any new caregiver: the strategies, routines, and supports that actually work for this person — captured on a single page so nobody has to learn by trial and error.
