Hello Nostr!

I’ve been lurking here for a couple of months and decided it is time to interact in a more meaningful way. To create content vs. just the occasional reply to someone else’s note.

Also previously lurked on X but never interacted as I just didn’t feel part of the community. I am now nostr only.

Anyway, here is a little about me. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a 10+ year focus on geriatrics. Specifically helping people help their parents navigate this current healthcare environment in the US.

It seems no one thinks about their parents having a fall, injury or medical event until they wind up hospitalized and most of the decisions and responsibility falls on the children who usually have little to no knowledge of how this broken system has to be managed.

I have written a book titled The Accidental Caregiver’s Guide: The toolkit for navigating the healthcare system and aging in place. It has 153 five star reviews on Amazon. If anyone would like a copy just reach out and I can email you a free pdf. Also happy to post the book for free on nostr if there is a way to do that.

My wife and I are actively reducing our hours working for someone else and look to spend more time raising our young daughters and focusing on our health.

I look forward to contributing to the value for value community here. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. Thank you for reading this and have a great day!

Winn
