Does Threaded Care arrange care for my parent?

No. It is not an eldercare agency and does not arrange or provide care.

How many people are family caregivers overall?

AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving estimate 63 million Americans provide ongoing care. That is everyone giving care, not only the sandwich generation, and not a count of employees.

Can siblings share information?

You decide who to connect with and what to share.

Is there anything for me?

Yes. Your own adult profile and the resources available to you sit alongside the people you support.

For people caring in two directions

Caring in two directions. You need support too.

What is a sandwich-generation caregiver?

It is someone who supports children and an adult relative, often a parent, at the same time. Both kinds of care come with their own appointments, questions and schedules. Your own needs belong on the list too. Threaded Care helps you organize information for the people you support and yourself; it is not an eldercare agency or care provider.

What this can look like

Illustrative examples, not customer stories or testimonials.

Illustrative example: two schedules

Lisa has a 9-year-old with school meetings and a father with weekly physical therapy. She keeps both sets of information in one place and one note for herself.

Illustrative example: siblings sharing

Two brothers share care for their mother while raising young kids. They split the next steps for her and each keep their own family's information separate.
