Why This Matters
More of our lives are stored online than ever before
As more aspects of our lives move online, it is becoming increasingly important to ensure that personal information, accounts and digital records can be accessed and managed when needed.
Without preparation, families can face difficulty accessing or managing these accounts when it matters most. Planning ahead helps reduce stress and ensures that important information is not lost or inaccessible.
Smart Senior Steps approaches this topic with care and respect — empowering individuals to plan ahead while supporting families in understanding their responsibilities together.
Many important parts of life are now stored digitally:
Banking and financial information
Email accounts and communications
Photos and personal records
Subscriptions and online services
Important documents and records
