Caring for a Loved One

We know you want to do as much as you can to meet your loved one’s needs, whether you’re providing care for a long-term condition or disease, a short-term illness, or during the decline of old age. Our resources will help you take care of your loved one, but they’ll also help you focus on someone else important: you. Explore your options so you can access the support you need.

Resources

  1. Proxy Access to Medical Record

    Currently, proxy access is available for parents of children 13 years of age and younger. Proxy access can be granted for patients who are 14 years and older, with a signed consent form from the patient. Adult to Adult proxy is also offered under the same guidelines.
