New blog: Teamwork makes the dream work. Written by: Myra Holland Every appointment, every meeting, every moment, “are we doing enough?”. Often there’s no definitive answer and we’re left to figure it out day to day on our own. Any given day with Wes may seem routine, but we never know how it will go. Most days I stay with him and take him through stretches, medications, and his favorite activity – watching Bluey. Often times, this is the only moment he gets to sit up and see the world from a new perspective as he struggles to breathe upright for long periods of time. Daily routines can vary though there are certain things which must stay the same and this is where mejo comes in. I began using mejo to compile Wesley’s daily routine, medications, therapies, and more to post in one concise page on the fridge. More recently, I used mejo to fill in Jake and Nate for the multiple appointments Wesley had when I was traveling to a rare disease conference. It came in handy for referencing everything from recent progress in OT to current medication doses (they change every month if not every few weeks due to the intractable nature of his epilepsy). The appointments went smoothly even though I wasn’t there to join in and add my two cents, they were already in his mejo. I plan to take mejo printouts everywhere now. It replaced our normal handwritten paper covered in scribbles and scratch outs. Now one lives in his diaper bag, one for doctors appointments, and one for caregivers on the rare night out.

When the game is on the line it takes TEAMWORK! Last week while attending the annual Global Genes Advocacy Summit I met Myra, a Rare Mom, Caregiver and Advocate who recently came across mejo. She told me how mejo has helped her with all the things related to her son, Wesley's rare disease and care. While she was at the conference her husband and her brother stepped in and took Wesley to a few appointments. "The appointments went smoothly even though I wasn’t there to join in and add my two cents, they were already in his mejo." As someone who has spent years navigating healthcare and works everyday to building tools for families caring for medically complex loved ones, I’ve seen firsthand the power of teamwork. Caring for someone with a rare or complex condition is an everyday job—one that often requires coordinating with multiple caregivers, specialists, and therapists. Each person plays a vital role, and without effective collaboration, critical information can easily fall through the cracks. That’s why we built mejo—to ensure that everyone on the caregiving team has a shared understanding of the care journey. From doctors and specialists to family members and friends, teamwork is at the heart of providing the best care. The ability to share health updates, communicate effectively, and store critical medical details all in one place can make an immense difference. Our mission at mejo is to simplify care coordination so families can focus on what matters most—their loved one. This blog post beautifully highlights the importance of everyone working together. We believe in empowering families to build a strong, unified team through technology. Because when it comes to caregiving, teamwork truly does make the dream work. Let’s continue building those bridges and working together to lighten the load for families everywhere. #TeamMejo #CaregiverSupport #FamilyFirst

Geriatric Social Care Trainee | Dedicated to Enhancing Quality of Life for Older Adults. IT Support Specialist.
Day 5: The Power of Teamwork 🤝 In geriatric care, teamwork is at the core of everything we do. Every day, I’m reminded of the saying: “A single tree cannot make a forest.” 🌳 Each team member brings unique strengths that, together, create a supportive environment for those we care for. When challenges arise, I think of another proverb: “Sticks in a bundle are unbreakable.” 🪵 Collaboration not only makes the work lighter but also ensures that no one feels alone in their efforts. Finally, “When spiders unite, they can tie up a lion.” 🕸️🦁 perfectly captures how even the most complex challenges can be overcome through teamwork and collective effort. Grateful to be part of teams that inspire, support, and push me to grow every day. Together, we make care meaningful. #Teamwork #Collaboration #GeriatricCare #BetterTogether #Eldercare

I gave birth to my daughter in Japan. My husband and I loved living there, but she needed better healthcare, so I moved back to the US.

Many of you may be familiar with Moris from our earlier posts—he’s an inspiring individual who doesn’t let vision impairment limit him. Today, I want to take a step-by-step approach to illustrate how we, at YLDS, work together to ensure that Moris can thrive both in his passion for goalball and his work. This is a blueprint of our process, one that guides how we can achieve the ultimate result: empowering participants like Moris to reach new heights. 🛠️ Step 1: Establish Clear Communication Channels Goal: Ensure a seamless flow of information between support workers, allied health professionals, and Moris. How We Achieve It: Daily and weekly check-ins between our support team and allied health professionals. Clear documentation of progress and challenges, shared in real-time. Open forums for feedback where all team members can share their observations. 🎯 Step 2: Develop a Tailored Support Plan 👂 Step 3: Listen and Learn from Every Interaction 💪 Step 4: Build Resilience Through Teamwork 🌟 The Outcome: Why This Approach Works At YLDS, Moris’s story is a testament to the power of collaboration. Our approach is simple but effective: communication, customisation, observation, and resilience-building. It’s this roadmap that enables us to not just meet but exceed the expectations of our participants. Together, we turn possibilities into achievements. And we’ll continue to strive for more, for Moris and for everyone we support. 💡 Takeaway for Our Network: Whether you’re an NDIS provider, support worker, or allied health professional, remember that the journey is always better when traveled together. Open communication and active collaboration can unlock potential and drive transformative outcomes. Let’s keep pushing boundaries!
