For families caring for someone on hospice
When the nurse asks how the night went, you'll have the answer.

- See at a glance what helped, and what didn't
- No more “did anyone give the 2 o'clock dose?”
- Give your hospice team the full picture at every visit

This log is for you if…
- You're giving comfort medicines at home and want to remember what you gave, when, and whether it helped.
- Family and friends are taking turns, and the next person keeps asking what happened.
- The nurse asks about last night, and by the afternoon nobody remembers.
- Your person is in a facility, and you want your own record of visits, changes and questions.
No medical background needed. On a hard day, a few checkmarks are enough.
On very little sleep, nobody remembers.
- Was the pain worse after lunch, or was that yesterday?
- When was the last dose, and who gave it?
- What did the night nurse say on the phone, and what were we supposed to watch for?
Write it down once, and everyone has the answer.

Questions
How do I print it?
On regular letter paper, one side only, at "Actual size" or "100%." Page 2 of the file walks you through it, including a good first batch to print. Punch three holes on the left and keep it in a 1½ or 2 inch binder.
Can I print the pages more than once?
Yes, as many times as your family needs. That's the point: print a fresh daily page every morning for as long as you need it.
Does it tell me what dose to give?
No. It never gives doses. Every page records what your hospice team prescribes and tells you, and points you back to your nurse.
Our person is in a facility. Is it still useful?
Yes. Families use it to track visits, changes, questions for the nurse, and what the staff told them.
Is there a paperback?
Yes. The large-print paperback has 146 pages, with 60 days of daily pages, and ships from Amazon for $14.99. The printable is better if you need pages tonight or want to reprint them.
Who made it?

For organizing, not medical advice. The log helps you keep track and ask better questions. Your hospice team knows your person's situation and should guide care decisions.
