Episode 13: Tech to the Rescue – Apps & Devices That Lighten Your Load

What if the cavalry showed up not in scrubs—but in your smartphone?

In this powerful episode of Caregiver Secrets, we follow Carla, a devoted caregiver whose world spirals when her mom with dementia goes missing. After a terrifying close call, Carla discovers something that changes everything: technology doesn’t just assist—it rescues.

From GPS-enabled watches and door alarms to smart displays and caregiver journaling apps, this episode is packed with emotionally rich storytelling and real-world insights that will open your eyes to the game-changing tools available right at your fingertips.

You’ll learn:

  • How to use simple tech to prevent wandering and missed medications

  • The power of digital routines to soothe confusion and reduce repetitive questions

  • How apps can help you track patterns, release guilt, and stay grounded

  • Why using technology isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, overextended, or one emergency away from burnout, this episode will remind you: you don’t have to do it all alone.
