a must have book

Reviewed by Debra Gaynor for Reader Views (3/07) "The Senior Organizer" is a vault of information that will help in times of crisis. This book should be completed while "you are healthy and strong so you can get peace of mind, knowing that you're organized and equipped to handle all situations." None of us know what lies ahead. Accidents and illnesses come when least expected. Once filled out this book will contain essential information that will assist you or someone you love when need arises. "This book should be filled out in pencil so that it can be updated as need." There are two parts to "The Senior Organizer." Part one contains personal and medical information. There is a place to list prescription, pharmacy, and herbal medicines. There is a place to record doctor visits. How many times have you gone to the doctor and they want a medical history? There are specific pages to keep a record of this. There are pages to record insurance information. We each have a daily routine but does anyone else know our routine? There is a place to record you routine. Part two contains legal and financial information. There are certain pages that should be kept confidential. Those pages should be removed from the book or copied before filling them out and copies kept in a secure location. "This is an all-in-one-source of personal, medical, religious, legal and financial information that can save you time and money and maybe your life." "The Senior Organizer" by Debby S. Bitticks, Lynn Benson, and Dorothy K. Breininger is a must for everyone, not just seniors. I think filling out this is the most important thing you can do for a loved one. I was impressed that the authors even included a section for the names, address and phone numbers of friends. I intend to use this book and to purchase at least three more - one for my husband and one for each of my parents. I highly recommend this book to everyone; you never know when the need for this information may arise.

Senior Organizer - Life-Saving Tool

The Senior Organizer is an all encompassing A to Z guide of all the information anyone would ever need to collect regarding the ins and outs of any senior's life. Everything is covered. This guide will help you gather life-saving and personal info with regards to your senior. Bravo to the authors for providing us with all the essential questions to ask - I wouldn't have known where to start! I achieved great peace of mind knowing all there is to know about my Mother from her health care needs and her daily life, right the way through to her last wishes. My mother is also comforted by the fact that I know all there is to know about what is going on in her life. Every household needs this incredible book - we owe it to our loved ones.

Well Designed Organizational Tool

I am a legal aid attorney who spends alot of time helping seniors and am also the as owner of an online medical supply and equipment business. So many of the seniors I talk to struggle to locate important information and documents. This can often add confusion and stress to many of the difficult issues seniors already have to face. This book can help enormously and is an excellent, well designed organizational tool. It will save time and offer peace of mind to seniors and those who help care for them.

The Senior Organizer

This workbook provides forms to record any piece of vital information that you could possibly need to keep track of. Or you can write down where you keep an important document so that your family knows where it is in a medical emergency. After the whole Terry Shrivo thing we wanted to make sure we were prepared for anything!

Tremendous value

I used this for my 86 year old father, and it was a life-saving and incredibly useful book. Keeping track of all his accounts and medical information was a nightmare. This book made it so easy for me to gather and organize the critical information needed during the caregiving process. It made an unbelievable difference.
