After a fall, let’s help Mom get back on her feet, at her pace.
Rides to the doctor and physio, dinners at the door, a grab bar by the tub and a neighbour on call. Mom leads the plan, the people around her pitch in and she gets back to her walk and her friends.
An illustrative example
Every recovery is different. Use this as a starting point, and talk to a navigator about what fits your family. It’s free.
Who’s this plan for?
Pick who’s at the centre and we’ll write this page around them.
Every step, planned together
Here’s how the weeks after a fall often go. Use it as a guide, follow her doctor’s advice and change anything that doesn’t fit Mom.
Line up help close to home while she gets stronger
Compare local companies, see who your Circle already uses or ask your Circle for a name. Here’s how it will work in The Market. The names below are examples.
Appointment rides
Door to door for the doctor and physio, with an arm to lean on from the car.
Physio at home
Home visits first, then the clinic. Her physio will guide the exercises.
Small home changes
A grab bar by the tub, night lights in the hall and the loose rug rolled away.
Cleaning
A weekly clean while she gets her strength back, so the floors stay clear.
Meals
Warm dinners at the door on weekdays, from a menu she picks each week.
Groceries
Her usual list at the door every Thursday, so there are no heavy bags to carry.
A friend next door
The neighbour next door can hold a spare key, pop by for tea and be the first call if Mom needs a hand. Share just that part of the plan, nothing more.
Sunday dinner, together
The family cooks Sunday dinner in Mom’s kitchen while she sets the table and runs the show. Nothing beats a full house.
How to choose well
Questions we suggest asking any company before you say yes.
Everyone who helps, in one Circle
Family, friends, local pros and the apps you already use. Mom stays at the centre and decides who’s in. The names here are examples.
Not sure who to include? Start with our Circle builder.
Prompts for everyone from her doctor to her neighbours, plus the things Mom wants to get back to. It’s free, takes about 10 minutes and you can download your list to keep and share.
Build Mom’s CircleLess chasing, more living
Pearl keeps everyone in the loop so nobody has to hold it all in their head.
Ask for a hand
Post a request once. The right person says yes, and everyone sees it’s handled.
A daily check-in
Mom shares how she’s feeling in one tap over her morning coffee. The Circle sends a smile back.
One shared calendar
Appointments, visits and deliveries in one place, so nobody double-books.
Mom decides who sees what
Trusted Providers only see the steps they’re part of, nothing more.
Questions families ask
Something else on your mind? A navigator can talk it through with you.
No tech skills needed. Mom can check in with one tap each morning, or let her Circle handle the details while she stays in charge of who is in and what they see.
Then keep it simple. Mom decides who’s in her Circle, what they see and when the extra help winds down. Her doctor and physio lead on her recovery.
Starting a Circle is free, and the person at the centre is always free. Plus is $15 CAD a month, with a 14-day free trial.
Only the people in the Circle, and only what they are invited to see. Trusted Providers see the steps they are part of, nothing more.
