A New Resource for Caregivers
November 25, 2025

An Important Announcement for Caregiving Service Providers
We’re excited to share the news about an innovative new resource for family caregivers developed by Johns Hopkins University, in partnership with the Maryland Information Network and the Maryland Department of Aging.
The Johns Hopkins Memory Care Family Checklist will help families impacted by cognitive difficulties identify essential needs, access reliable information, and connect to tailored supports to assist in the development of a larger care plan.
The Checklist is currently in its pilot testing phase, and will be made available to the public in January 2026. We’re inviting our partners in caregiving to be a part of its successful launch by sharing any caregiving events you have planned in early 2026 that provide an opportunity to showcase this valuable resource.
If you’d like to learn more about the Checklist, the Maryland Information Network will discuss it at a Virtual Lunch and Learn on December 9th. All caregiving stakeholders are invited to attend, and the event is free.
