Who it's for
Adult children, relatives, or trusted friends coordinating benefits, insurance, and care administration for a parent who still participates in decisions and can grant consent. It fits readers who want a maintained, permission-aware system rather than a one-time file. If your parent can no longer consent, you need a different process (guardianship or conservatorship), which this guide does not cover.
About this playbook
You end with a complete, permission-aware binder — benefits, insurance, medications, providers, legal documents, and contacts — plus a 12-month calendar of required actions and a written maintenance plan. The path runs from a consent conversation with your parent, through an inventory of what already exists, to a designed skeleton that you fill section by section and then verify in real use. Nothing here assumes legal authority: sections the parent declines are marked out of scope, and the authorizations that unlock protected records are part of the work. The guide does not cover obtaining guardianship, managing your parent’s finances, choosing care facilities, or filing taxes.

Details
What you need first
Your parent is willing to participate and can consent to what is collected; you can reach their accounts or they can help you gather records; a safe place to store original documents; roughly 12 hours of hands-on time spread over a few weeks. No power of attorney or other legal authority is required to start.
