What to put on a shared calendar
A shared calendar works best when it holds plans, not private details. Write the time, the place, and who is going. Leave out the reason for a medical visit, account details, and anything the person would not want visitors to read.
- Visits from family and friends
- Rides, with the driver’s name
- Deliveries and service appointments at home
- Birthdays, holidays, and community events
- Trash and recycling days that change around holidays
How to use it with the weekly plan
Use this month view to see the big picture, and the weekly home planner for daily detail. At the start of each week, copy the next seven days from the month into the week.
Keeping it current
- Pick one person to update the calendar each Sunday.
- Use one color for each helper, or write initials next to each entry.
- Cross out canceled plans instead of erasing them, so everyone sees the change.
Families who want a connected set of pages, with a responsibility chart, ride plan, and backup plan, can look at the Zeitlos Family Care Binder.
