About Me & My Caregivers
Me & My Caregivers, Inc. was founded by
Rebecca Sharp Colmer as a result of:
- Being a writer and publisher of The Senior's Guide series of books.
- Years of working with Seniors in a help-capacity role.
- Long distance family caregiver for her parents and in-laws.
- Seeing the frustrations of many people in the role of caregiver.
Rebecca realized there are two universal needs of all caregivers: more help and better communications between all interested parties.
To help family caregivers and their loved ones she created
MeAndMyCaregivers.com. It is an affordable, easy-to-use, safe and secure subscription-based web service that uses the Internet to connect family, friends and healthcare providers to your loved one. Through our interactive website we provide a communications hub for everyone on the caregiving team by organizing and storing essential daily records. By allowing friends, family and healthcare providers access to these records via the Internet, everyone is better informed as to the true condition of the patient so they can be a better friend, a more in touch family member and/or a healthcare provider who really know the status of their patient.
Benefit to care-receiver:
The biggest benefit for the care-receiver is that they will get a better level of care from everyone, as their true condition will be known by the entire care team, on a daily basis. No more outdated snapshots that are used to make medical and family decisions.
Benefit to caregiver:
The biggest benefit for the caregiver is easing their time burden. By using a central place to keep records, appointments, to do lists and to communicate with everyone from the primary care physician to the relatiev who lives across the country, the caregiver frees up time. By using a centralized organizer you can immediately see what needs to be done, who needs to do it and where it needs to be done.
Benefit to Care Team:
Better management of the patient by knowing what is happening to them on a day-to-day basis, not just a snapshot during an appointment.
MeAndMyCaregivers.com
This site exists to help caregivers better manage the day to day activities that are so time consuming. Freeing up time means better care for the care-receiver and better care for the caregiver. One of the biggest complaints of caregivers is not having enough time for themselves. By utilizing a central communications hub, time is no longer wasted on administrative tasks that were tracked on slips of paper and the wall calendar.
