Frequently Asked Questions
Custom and personalized orders
Yes!
If you need a custom layout, personalized planner, or specialized caregiving tool, send me a message.
I can often create custom PDF guides depending on complexity.
1. What type of products do you sell?
I sell digital caregiver guides, planners, and organizational tools designed to help families navigate hospital discharges, rehab stays, home care, and daily caregiving tasks.
These products are digital PDF downloads — no physical items will be shipped.
2. How do I download my files?
After your payment is processed, Etsy will provide instant access to your digital downloads.
You can find them under:
Profile → Purchases & Reviews → Download Files
If you’re on the Etsy app, you must log in on a browser to download (the app currently does not support downloads).
3. Are these guides medical advice?
No.
These guides are educational tools designed to help caregivers stay organized and communicate effectively with healthcare providers.
They do not replace medical advice, therapy, or guidance from licensed medical professionals.
Always follow the plan of care provided by your doctor or therapist.
4. Can I get a refund on digital downloads?
Because these items are instant digital files, I cannot offer refunds or cancellations once the file has been downloaded.
However, if you have any issues with your files, I’m happy to help — just send me a message.
5. Can I edit the files?
Most guides are delivered as non-editable PDF files to ensure clean formatting.
You may print them as many times as you like for personal use.
If you need an editable version, feel free to message me and I’ll see what I can do.
6. Can I share these guides with others?
These files are for personal use only.
You may print copies for your own caregiving needs, but you may not resell, redistribute, or share the digital files.
8. I’m new to caregiving — will your guides help me?
Absolutely.
These resources are made specifically for beginners, overwhelmed family caregivers, and anyone who needs clear, simple organization during recovery or long-term care.
9. How do I print the guides?
You can print them at home, at a local print shop (Staples, Office Depot, UPS), or through an online printing service.
For best results, choose “Actual size” or “100% scale” and print on standard 8.5x11" paper
10. Who created these guides?
All guides are created by Chris, a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) with real clinical experience in hospitals, SNFs, and home-care settings.
These guides are designed to give caregivers clarity, confidence, and better communication with health professionals.
