For Caregivers, children and family network

With illness or decline, timing is everything: have the conversation while you can.

Many families wait for a crisis. Then there is stress, uncertainty and sometimes conflict. PassMyBits helps to capture wishes, boundaries and practical steps early, together with the person and the care network. In dementia, cancer or neurological illness, timely coordination is essential.

Why early discussion is critical

Capacity can decline

The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to capture preferences clearly together.

Families become overloaded

Without clear agreements, misunderstandings arise about roles, tasks and decision making.

Practical tasks pile up

Think about care portals, communication with institutions and daily administration that must continue.

How PassMyBits supports the conversation and execution

1

Bundle agreements per theme: care, finances, communication, documents and access.

2

Capture what the person wants while it can still be clearly discussed.

3

Divide responsibilities in the network: care, finances, communication.

4

Use controlled access and updates so information stays current as the situation changes.

How it works for care networks

1

Pass Care & Agreements

Capture care portals, medication, daily routine and roles.

2

Pass Contact & Communication

List GP, family, institutions and also friends or neighbors.

3

Pass Documents & Files

Store document locations and add a personal video message.

4

Trustees + time-lock

Prepare everything without releasing it; access unlocks after the waiting period.

Veelgestelde vragen

+Do we need to handle all legal steps first?

No. You can start practical agreements now and run them in parallel with the notary process.

+Can multiple family members collaborate?

Yes. A shared, clear framework prevents noise and overload.

+Why record this now?

Because clear agreements prevent stress and confusion later when the situation changes.

Do not wait for the crisis

Plan a family session and record what will make the difference later in care, access and agreements.
