While in the midst of Caregiving we are all looking for the one tool that will make our caregiving day just a little less worrisome. And with Technology changing the way we live at an alarming rate, what if the two collided? On this episode of Healing Ties, my guest is Jerry Wilmink from CarePredict. CarePredict is changing the way we care so caregivers can worry less, while catching indicators that impact care. Listen in and learn how Jerry Wilmink and the entire team at Care Predict are creating Healing Ties all around us!
You Might Know Me As The Bow Tie Guy - "Wearing a bow tie is like wearing two smiles."
When people ask me, "why did you create the Whole Care Network"... I always come back to our caregiving experience and how fortunate I was to find resources that helped me and my partner Richard Schiffer manage our caregiving journey. Every caregiver has a story; through our stories, we find validation, resources, and respite to help manage our caregiving day.
We were fortunate to have our story chronicled in a 2015 Pulitzer Prize-nominated 3-part story, “In Sickness and In Health: A Couple’s Final Journey,” which told our journey of caregiving. The story told of the challenges LGBT partners have in dealing with the medical and legal system, but it also told of the love and joy my partner Richard's last years had on our relationship.
