While “caregiver” may appear to be a formal designation, for us, it is simply anyone who helps care for another person; a parent taking care of their children, a spouse taking care of another spouse, and a daughter or son taking care of an elder parent are all caregivers. Regardless of what version you are, caregiving often means new and sometimes overwhelming amounts of activities to manage. This is why we created LikePaper, to help caregivers. Caregiving has received increased focus in recent years due to large demographic shifts in the average age of our citizens, as well as the negative economic impact in lost wages, productivity, and absenteeism. Today, it is estimated that more than 1 in 5 American adults provide unpaid care to another adult with health or functional needs. The impact is felt by all living generations and the new administration is currently exploring ways to help alleviate the societal burden through financial incentives and tax credits. Our hope is that LikePaper can be a useful tool for self-care or for organizing all your caregiving needs.

First, you’ll need to set up a Care Profile for the person you are caring for. To invite the care recipient from the LikePaper app, simply tap on their name or image from the dashboard to go to the Manage Profile screen. From this screen, tap on the Invite to LikePaper to start the process.
To do this from a computer, click the pull down menu on the upper right corner and select the relevant care profile. From this screen, tap on the Invite to LikePaper to start the process.
Once the care recipient becomes an active user, they have access to all features and functions in the app including removing access of caregivers.
To invite others, navigate to the care recipient’s Care Profile, where you will see members of the care team. From that area, simply click Invite Care Team, where you can invite manually or choose to invite a new team member from a contact already stored on your phone.
Said simply, a caregiver can do all the same things that the care recipient can do including add tasks, add medications and invite other users to the care team. A helper can only see the data in the app and cannot add any new data (e.g. can’t add a new medication) or invite other people to the care team.
A caregiver or a care recipient can choose to remove other members from the care team from the Care Profile. Care team members can also leave the care team by selecting their name on the care team and choosing to leave the care team.
You can add whatever items you want to help manage your daily life; whether that be to call a plumber, to schedule a doctor’s appointment, or to pick up paper towels. If you need to remember to do something, this will help.
From the home screen, simply select Create Task. Give your task a name and add any information you like, such as notes, a due date/time and if the task is repeating. Hit Save and that’s all there is to it.
For each task, you can easily create a reminder by selecting the Add Reminder button. Set the reminder for when you want it, either on time or up to a day before. Be sure to enable LikePaper notifications.
Remembering medications in case of an emergency can be difficult, and serious medication interactions could be avoided by having this simple list. Additionally, roughly 50% of medications are not taken properly. Take the stress out of taking medications by creating a list and setting a schedule with reminders.
From Home, select Add Medications and schedule. Either search for medications from our robust database or enter in the medication manually. Once you have entered a medication name either stop there or continue to add information such as Strength and Instructions, Schedule and Reminders, Prescribing Physician, or Filling Pharmacy.
Select the Medication navigation to bring up the list of current medications. Select the medication you would like to edit to bring up the detail screen. From the detail screen, select the menu in the top righthand corner, which will allow you to Edit or Remove medication. Select Edit, which will allow you to edit the medication.

Privacy is important, we agree. You can easily add physicians and pharmacies without granting access to your phone contacts. However, to add people, LikePaper does require access to your contacts. One option is to grant access for LikePaper, add the contacts you wish, and then disable access. This way, you can easily add contacts to the application.
Selecting either Add People/Physicians/Pharmacies will allow you to add contacts from your phone. For physicians and pharmacies, you also have the option to search by name and add once the correct contact has been found.
No. Removing a contact from the app does exactly and only that. The contact will still be available on your phone.
Tracking important vital information such as weight or blood pressure can be valuable information in managing your overall health. Talk to your care team about what vitals you should be tracking, and use the LikePaper app for easy tracking.
You can edit the data through the “View All Data” button found on the Vitals Information screen for that specific vital.
To create a vital reminder, go to the Vitals Information screen, and select “Add Reminder.”
The questionnaire is a survey that is a health care standard for identifying the level of support a care recipient may need with the 5 activities of daily living, sometimes referred to as ADLs: Eating, Bathing, Dressing, Mobility, Toileting. Based on your answers, we provide recommendations and tips to help with these activities. Your healthcare provider and insurance company may also want to understand this information as additional support may be available to you based on the answers.
We would love to hear from you! From settings, select the Share Feedback option which will allow you to email us your feedback.
