Receipts & Sources

---

Prime Age practices transparent, public-interest journalism. This page explains how reporting is sourced and how caregiver tools are created, so readers understand what each is based on.

Receipts apply to investigative reporting. They include laws, regulations, policy guidance, official records, and data referenced in Prime Age reports. Receipts allow readers to review the exact materials behind factual claims.

Sources include public records, government publications, academic research, interviews, and firsthand accounts. Sources are cited to provide context and clarity.

Prime Age caregiver tools are practice-based.

They were developed through more than a decade of real-world caregiving, structured experimentation, and repeated use. The founder designed, tested, and refined these tools while managing daily care, responding to burnout, and later coordinating paid caregivers.

Some tools—including automated forms for tracking fluids and daily care needs—were created to test what worked, reduce errors, and improve communication. They evolved through observation, adjustment, and outcomes over time.

These tools are original frameworks created by Prime Age.

The tools were not copied from agencies, manuals, or studies. They were created independently through lived experience and experimentation.

When a tool reflects common system requirements (such as information needed for medical visits or care coordination), those requirements are addressed in related reporting—not presented as instructions or advice.

Prime Age tools are not medical, legal, or financial advice. They are shared to help families stay organized, informed, and prepared.

Accuracy. Honesty. Plain language. Respect for privacy.
