What is My S.I.C. Book?
My S.I.C. Book is a valuable organizational tool for people giving and receiving Serious Illness Care because recalling and sharing critical details can be difficult, especially during a crisis.
What are my current medications?
What is my height and weight?
What unique things are comforting when I am stressed out or angry?
Who should be contacted to service the medical equipment?
Who are my primary and secondary caregivers?
Who is better suited to be on the support team?
Who should be called if I am ill or hospitalized?
Who should be called in an emergency?
What are my goals of care?
What does a healthcare agent do? Who is my healthcare agent?
As the healthcare agent, how do I know if I am making the”right” decisions?
What are the next steps if the person I care for dies at home?
……and who is taking care of the dog?
Preparation leads to peace of mind.
My S.I.C. Book Package contains:
SEVEN customizable document templates for organizing important information (Copyright protected)
1) Emergency & Medical Information, 2) Mind, Body, & Good Gear, 3) Caregivers & Support Teams, 4) Friends & Social Groups, 5) Education Information, 6) Employment & Volunteer Information, 7) End-of-life Considerations.
Each template can be edited and updated to serve your unique needs. Sections may be added or removed as desired.
FOUR hours of consulting time (typically used in eight, 30 minute Assistance Sessions, via Zoom)
Each pack includes four hours of consulting via Zoom, to be consumed in 8, weekly, 30 minute assistance sessions.
Week One is an introduction and discussion about helpful strategies to stay motivated. Each following week will be a check-in for questions, concerns, and encouragement. You can choose to restructure the Assistance Session schedule as preferred/needed. The opportunity to additional time is available.
This service is a key distinction in why My S.I.C. Book is a better solution for care givers and recipients than what is currently available. Do-it-yourself online forms add one more thing to the long to-do lists. Our mission is to minimize burden and burnout, not to “should” on people.
