Create Your Own Health Care Notebook

The major role of this notebook is to help individuals served by TCRC and/or their parents, caregivers or service providers maintain an ongoing record of the individual’s health care history and current medical status. Healthcare notebooks are valuable in providing medical personnel with vital information and helping individual’s and/or their families take an active role in their medical care.

These forms were gathered by Rainbow Connection Family Resource Center to assist families in creating health care notebooks for individuals. Please choose the forms that are appropriate for your needs.

There are many websites where you can download different forms and use for your notebook. These are two examples of many you can access online: http://www.medicalhomeinfo.org/for_families/care_notebook

In addition to the forms, we have included fact sheets and checklists for you to use on a variety of topics.
