There is no right or wrong way to do this. This is your chart. Don't overthink it!

The goal is to have all of the information together and organized in a way that will be easy to find when it matters.
Things to Consider
Things to Consider
Security of where and how to store your personal information should always be a priority and carefully thought out.
What supplies are needed, and which you already have, to create your chart.
Where to search for documents from past appointments and diagnostic tests, along with notes, to incorporate into the chart.
How to organize the information in a way that makes sense, such as chronological, by topic, condition, or medical specialty.
Does separating the information into an active and archive file make sense if you have a large amount of pages to organize.
Future planning can be helpful if you don't have a large budget to invest and want to start small.

If it isn't the printer, it's the ink! It seems like we buy more ink than we should at times. Apparently if you don't use your printer consistently, the ink dries up and needs replacing.
Binders will continue to be a popular way of organizing and protecting information. If you shop around, you will come across differences like material they are made from, type of rings, and embellishments such as pockets to hold loose pages and pamphlets. Which is right for you?
Hole punches are just the thing you need to bring your binder and printed pages together, but tend to forget about when shopping for the perfect binder and printer.
Binders are like mail baskets: one day they are empty, the next they are overflowing onto everything around them. If you don't figure out how you want to organize your information, you are setting yourself up for a disaster.
Whether creating a health journal for yourself, a family member, or friend you care for, the first thing you want to figure out is where you want to organize important health information.
There are no official manuals on how to care for loved ones, or even ourselves. Like many others, I've had to make things up as I go to help the people I care for while ebbing and flowing with my own chronic health condition flare-ups. It is my hope that these resources help you and your loved ones find better health on your journey to wellbeing.
My Paper Chart is for everyone.
