2024 was a year of firsts for us. First social channels. First video. First website. First website redesign. First podcast. First meetings. First followers. We’ve got some firsts lined up for 2025! As you all know, the hardest part of anything is getting started. Thank you for supporting the work we do so that we can continue to support caregivers. #caregiving #caregivers #newyear #longtermcare #homehealthcare #eldercare

About us
Welcome to The Carefullist! Caring for a family member is the ultimate act of love. We know, we've been there. It can also be challenging and lonely. We've been there, too. As a matter of fact, that's how The Carefullist began. We're here for you while you travel this journey. We'll share caregiving resources and tips for what we've learned, along with personal takes on grief, how that process often starts far before a loved one passes away, and how grief can occur with any life-altering change. As the saying goes, when there is a diagnosis there are actually two new patients; the person receiving care and the person giving it. Our hope is that you find this space to be a soft place to land.

For everyone who doesn’t feel the least bit festive today, tomorrow, or the entire week, that’s ok. For those who still have to act festive even though they don’t feel it, we see you trying your best. We know how exhausting it is. The wishing you felt how you act. The hoping nobody picks up on it. Looking forward to everyone’s happiness tonight/tomorrow and also for it all to just be done so you can try to gather yourself. None of this means you love your family and friends less. It means that life is hard sometimes. Be kind to yourself. #caregiving #caregivers #caregiversupport #grief #griefsupport #longtermcare #homehealthcare #holidays

P. June Marcangeli, MS CMR cared for her mom who had dementia. As often happens with caregivers, getting to her own appointments got harder. June missed a mammogram for the first time ever, and when she was finally able to go, they found breast cancer. She talks with us about navigating the healthcare system and advocating for yourself.

Crystal Gallo was a caregiver for her grandmother and uncle. One had dementia, the other had cancer- two very different experiences. The common theme between them was the challenge of coordinating, tracking, and organizing care. A veteran of startups and tech, Crystal set out to create what she wished she had, an app to end caregiving burnout.

🤔 How do you know when you need a caregiver? Where do you go to find one? We talked with Kate Granigan, CEO of LifeCare Advocates, an Aging Life Care management company based in Newton, Massachusetts to find out. Kate serves as President of the Board of Directors at the Aging Life Care Association® (ALCA), a nonprofit professional membership association representing over 2,000 members nationwide. She has over 25 years of experience as a geriatric social worker, a master's in social work, and is a licensed independent clinical social worker in the State of Massachusetts.

📰 BIG NEWS! If you've been to our site, you know CaringBridge is one of the resources we recommend to caregivers. If you follow us on social media, you know we talk about Instacart as a huge time saver and independence-builder. It's super exciting news that these two have partnered to make things easier and more streamlined for caregivers. Food and meal prep is a massive black hole in the caregiver/time continuum. This partnership is a game changer. Well done! #caregiving #caregivers #caregiversupport #longtermcare #partnership #homehealthcare #aginginplace #eldercare #foodsupply #healthcare
We’re excited to announce a new partnership between CaringBridge and Instacart, making it easier than ever for communities to support #caregivers and their loved ones. Through this collaboration, CaringBridge users can now create personalized grocery and household essentials lists, enabling friends and family to send needed items directly via Instacart’s vast network of local and national retailers. With delivery options reaching 98% of U.S. households, including food deserts, this partnership helps meet nutritional and daily living needs conveniently and efficiently. Caregiving is complex, but small acts of support—like sending a grocery delivery—can make a meaningful difference. This partnership further empowers communities to provide the care that matters most. Together, we’re simplifying support and strengthening connections! https://ow.ly/gVK450UooZb

Kunal Parikh shares wise and comforting words through the concept of telescoping. Caregivers are all too familiar with the feeling of being glued to the present while constantly thinking about the future. A former surgeon turned caregiver advocate, Kunal shares fantastic content about caregiving. You should give him a follow. #caregiving #caregivers #caregiversupport #carejourney #carepartners #healthcare #longtermcare #eldercare #patientadvocacy #caregiveradvocate

Caregiving is like living in two timelines simultaneously. One moment, you're locked into the urgency of right now. The next, your mind stretches far beyond today, wrestling with what’s to come. This constant shift – also called "telescoping of time" – is what makes caregiving super complex. How do you stay present in the now while preparing for an uncertain future? How do we support caregivers through this? The ideal caregiver intervention helps a caregiver hold space for both: the here and now, and the there and then. They should offer tools for resilience today and hope for tomorrow. Check out the video to hear more! As I look back on the past few years of working on caregiver interventions, I’m filled with deep gratitude for the inspiring caregiver advocates I’ve had the privilege to know: Laura Jane, Alison Barkoff, Kathy Wehr, Crystal Polizzotti, Melissa Gualtieri, Simone Holder Nelson, Liv Mendelsohn, James Janeiro, Amy Coupal, Alison Kilbourn, Ron Beleno, Tammy L. Smith, Sara Maloney, Tina Goulet 🙏 If you’re working on caregiving support or designing interventions, let’s connect! I’d love to share insights and collaborate on solutions to make caregiving a more supported journey. #Caregiving #Telescoping #CaregiverSupport #HealthcareInterventions #Resilience #LongTermCare #EmpathyInCare
