Caregiving From Afar Guide Book

The Complete Guide to Caregiving From Afar — Here’s How I Did It

Real experience. Honest advice.

When I started caring for my mother from the other side of the world, I looked everywhere for help. How to stay connected. How to keep her safe. How to manage everything remotely when I couldn't just pop round.

There was nothing. Not one resource that told me how to actually do it from afar.

So I figured it out myself. Over years. Alone. Through trial and error, sleepless nights and more backup plans than I can count.

This guide is what I wish had existed when I started.

I'm not a dementia specialist or a medical professional. What I am is someone who lived it — and became something of an expert in caring for a parent from a distance in the process.

It’s not only about dementia. It's about caring for someone when you can't be there every day. Whether you're across the world or across town, if you're not there every day, this guide is for you.

What's inside:

• Technology for Staying Connected
• Home Safety
• People and Support
• Daily Life Workarounds

But more than that, it's about how it all came together. The backup plans behind the backup plans. The small changes she never noticed. Everything that kept her safe, independent and at home for far longer than anyone thought possible.

And all of it put in place so that no matter how far away I was, I could still be there. For her. And for my own peace of mind.

Nearly 100 pages of real, lived experience. This is the guide that didn't exist. Until now.
