A structured Charter to help families clarify responsibility, organize essential information, prepare for the first 72 hours of a crisis, protect caregiver continuity, and keep the plan current.
Clarity Before Crisis — the best time to decide who is responsible is before the family is under pressure.
Responsibility Must Be Named — what everyone assumes someone will handle may ultimately be handled by no one.
Crisis Reveals Fragility — a crisis does not create every problem; it often reveals what was already fragile.
Caregiver Sustainability Is Part of Patient Safety — a family care plan is incomplete if it protects the patient but quietly exhausts the caregiver.
Prepared by Micah Eastman, LPN, drawing on more than 30 years of nursing, private-duty care, caregiver coordination, and household health management.
This Charter is a private family coordination and planning tool. It is not a legal document, medical directive, estate plan, clinical order, or substitute for advice from an attorney, physician, licensed clinician, care manager, or other qualified professional.
