For Parkinson's caregivers | Guide Star Health

For caregivers

You went to the appointment too.

Guide Star Health is for people with Parkinson's and the people beside them. Ask your questions, keep a notebook that is yours, and build a Care Circle of your own.

Nobody asks to be the caregiver. The person with Parkinson's has the diagnosis. You have the questions, the appointments, and the 2 a.m. version of “now what?” This is a safe place to bring all of it, and you do not have to carry it alone.

What you can do here

  • Start your own account as a caregiver. First 7 days free, then $7.99 a month.
  • Ask whenever you need to, 2 a.m. included. Guide Star Health answers with a caregiver in mind.
  • A private notebook for what you can't say anywhere else: the hard days, the guilt, the 2 a.m. worry. Write a few lines and get a short, kind reply. Only you can see it.
  • A Care Circle when you are ready. People you invite are free to add.
  • A community room for the days you want other people who are in it too.

If the person you care for already has Guide Star Health, they can invite you to their Care Circle at no cost, and you can ask questions and keep your notebook there. Your own account is for setting up their profile yourself and building a Care Circle of your own.
