## Prompt

```text
Help me set up a care plan for my aging parent that my family can share.

**Parent's situation:** [AGE, LIVING ARRANGEMENT, WHAT THEY CAN AND CAN'T DO ALONE]
**Health conditions and care needs (as told by their doctors):** [LIST]
**Family members and what each can give:** [NAMES, DISTANCE, TIME, MONEY, SKILLS]
**Current tasks:** [e.g. "appointments", "medications", "groceries", "bills", "house upkeep", "companionship"]
**Parent's wishes:** [WHAT THEY WANT - e.g. "stay at home"]
**Tension or gaps:** [e.g. "one sibling does everything", "no one manages finances"]

Create:
1. A task table: task | how often | who owns it | backup | notes.
2. A shared calendar structure for appointments and visits.
3. A one-page "care binder" outline: contacts, medications, doctors, insurance, legal documents to look into (e.g. healthcare proxy, power of attorney), and where originals are kept.
4. A monthly family check-in agenda and a fair way to raise imbalance without blame.
5. Signs that more support may be needed and the kinds of local services to research (home care, adult day programs, respite care).
6. Caregiver self-care: how to share load and avoid burnout.

Keep my parent's voice central. For legal and financial documents, tell us to confirm requirements with a qualified professional where we live.
