Care Notebook
Get your child’s medical information organized
When a child or young adult lives with complex medical needs, chances are they have many doctors appointments, medications, Insurance bills, nutrition, and other important lists and paperwork to keep track of. A Care Notebook is a way to organize all your medical information in one place, to have available for yourself or to share with others if need be.
The care notebook will help you:
- Track information about your child’s health history
- It will hold all the information about your child’s: primary care provider, school, daycare staff, school nurse
- Tracking any changes in your child’s medical treatments.
- Local resources available for your family
