Quick tip for anyone caring for parents from abroad: If something happens suddenly — a fall, a hospital admission — do you know exactly where their medical aid details, ID, and next-of-kin contacts are? I always recommend putting together one simple "emergency folder" (physical or digital) with all of this in one place, so whoever's with your parents in the moment isn't scrambling or calling you at 2am to find a policy number. Even just doing this one thing makes a huge difference when something goes wrong.
