One day most of us will find ourselves in need of some form of
caregiving. We may remain in our homes or we may find ourselves
in a nursing home, and assisted living center, a retirement community,
a hospice, a hospital, one of our children's homes, or one of
many other living arrangements. Whatever the situation, the time
most likely will come when we will be looked after - cared for-
by others. This guidebook will be completed by you and tell your
caregivers: Your favorite foods; Music that you like to listen
to; Medications that you need to take daily; Medical conditions
that could prove life-threatening; Your educational background
and occupational history; Your family tree; Clothes that you like
to wear at certain times; Your feelings about your death and funeral.
