Caregiving printables

About caregiving printables

These sheets handle the paperwork side of caring for a parent, partner or other family member at home. They keep track of people, time, things and money: who is on the care team and how to reach them, who covers which shift, when the next appointment is, what supplies and equipment are in the house, and what the month has cost. Each one prints on a single page in black and white and is filled in by hand, so it can live in a care binder or on the fridge where every helper can see it.

How to use them

Start with the Sign-Up Sheets when more than one person shares the work: one collects the care team's contact details, one fills a week of shifts, and one gathers volunteers for respite breaks. The Inventory Lists keep a standing record of contacts, supplies and equipment, while the supply log records what was used and when to reorder. For time, the Monthly Calendar and the appointment log hold visits and follow-ups, and the weekly prep checklist confirms bookings, transport and stock before each week begins. The Budget Sheets record care spending by week, by month or across a quarter.

Questions

Do any of these sheets record health readings or medication? No. They record contacts, schedules, supplies and costs only. Questions about health, treatment or medication belong with the person's doctor, nurse or pharmacist.

Which sheet should I start with if several relatives share the caregiving? Start with the Care Team Contact Sign-Up so everyone's details are in one place, then use the Daily Caregiver Shift Cover to fill each week's shifts with a named person.

How do I keep track of what care costs each month? Pick the budget sheet that matches how often you review spending: the weekly spending sheet, the monthly cost tracker, the day-by-day monthly costs log, or the quarterly out-of-pocket ledger. Keep receipts with the sheet so every entry can be checked.
