Our Family, Our Way: A Communication and Care Coordination Process for Family Caregivers is an innovative process developed by Miami University’s Scripps Gerontology Center to assist caregiving families in coordinating care through clear communication. This process provides families with resources to hold productive family meetings, discuss care needs, and define caregiving roles and responsibilities. The initiative includes individual tools, a family meeting guide, and other support materials to ensure a collaborative and well-organized caregiving arrangement.
Aims
1: Provide families with the tools and resources to facilitate clear communication about caregiving roles and responsibilities.
2: Enable families to hold structured family meetings to discuss and agree upon care plans, support needs, and responsibilities.
Dates
The project is ongoing and does not have a specified end date.
