Caregivers have a big responsibility and it's sometimes hard to keep track of things, let alone try to keep everyone else updated. There are many services, activities, doctor visits, events and so forth that will need to be planned and assigned for someone with disabilities. With the help of Lotsa Helping Hands, caregivers using this free service will no longer have to stress as much about this aspect of long-term care. LotsaHelpingHands.com provides a simple way for caregivers to organize events, resources and tasks that are involved in caring for a loved one with disabilities. It is a more organized way of keeping those who are involved in the person's care and well-being (even those who do not know each other) informed and up to date about events as well as providing resources and updates.

A designated coordinator, which could be a family member or friend, simply has to sign up, which only takes a moment. From there, the coordinator is provided with a password-protected private online community of resources for caregivers, family and friends. Once the community has been created, the coordinator can invite others to join and participate. Those who join could be family, friends and volunteers, as well as caregivers. It is up to the organizer who they feel should join. Optimally, it should be a good mix of all of the above to provide access to the most resources possible, depending on the individual's needs.

Accessible to members of the community will be private message boards, photo storage, a wall for well wishes, and also sections for sharing Websites, resources and documents. The easy-to-use templates on the community board allow for families to quickly make it known what is needed for the person with disabilities, what resources are available, as well as how each task should be carried out, including restrictions, times, dates and more. Volunteers, family, friends and caregivers who have joined the community can sign up to assist with any of the necessary tasks. With the help of LotsaHelpingHands.com, caregivers of those with disabilities will have a much simpler way to organize all the tasks at hand and likely have much more time to actually spend with the person being cared for, versus stressing over all the little details.
