Siebens Health Care Notebook Ring-bound – January 15, 2018

OK, so my sister created this. Although my health is good, bought a notebook to see what she's been researching and slaving over for, literally, 20+ years. Bottom line? Very cool, even just to track doctor appointments and prescriptions. If you hate thinking about going to the doctor, the notebook serves as an easy log when you do have to focus. Gave it as a present to several friends. Here's one of their reviews:May 16, 2019We were given two of the Siebens Health Care Notebooks as presents recently and at first we were not sure how to use them. However as we thumbed through the contents we quickly realized they could be very useful. As we’ve aged, our visits to various doctors have become more and more frequent and the notebook has become our Gleeson Family Heath Care Logbook. We dutifully note every visit, as well as the prescriptions we are taking. I am a pilot, and every two years must submit to a flight physical to maintain my status. The questionnaire always asks detailed questions about my doctor visits and any surgeries, as well as a list of medications. Our new log, which we’ve been using for over a year now, makes it a ‘cinch’ to quickly answer those questions accurately. We’re very happy with the Siebens Healthcare Notebook and recommend it for anyone who visits a doctor more than once or twice a year. Gene & Traute Gleeson, Glendale, Calif.

Dr Siebens has created a long overdue easy-to-use method for getting the most out of your health care providers. It is user friendly and can and should be used those who are intimately involved with the care of a family member or friend.There is just too much information for anyone to keep track of it all in their head! And there is a big cost to forgetting crucial information when its needed. Dr Siebens has created this "user friendly" based upon decades of taking care of patients and organizing their care. You will do yourself, your doctor and your loved one a big favor by getting yourself a copy of the "Siebens Health Care Notebook." Makes a nice holiday or birthday present too!

I am a practicing rehabilitation medicine physician and have been familiar with Dr Siebens Domain Management Model (SDMM) for many years. In rehabilitation medicine you can't get by only being concerned with purely medical issues. The SDMM used in this notebook provides a framework for consideration of many of the other important aspects of medical care often underemphasized by the acute medical care model. Using this book as a reference and guideline will help assure that your medical care addresses these important issues and concerns. I highly recommend this book as a resource for your complete health care.

I brought this notebook as a gift for my sister following a recent accident and surgery. She thought it was a terrific way of keeping track of all of her health care related information and has been busy filling it up. Thank you Dr. Siebens!

In the interest of full disclosure, Hilary Siebens and I were college roommates years ago. Our lives have taken different courses and we remain best of friends.She told me years ago about her Notebook project and in a recent visit gave the improved, revised version to my 95-year old mother as a gift. She suggested my mom, and her companion care friend, read the book and that it might help all of us take care of her health.Yesterday, hassled with running our family business, I had to drive my mom to see a new eye doctor. I took the Notebook with us. It worked really well, even saved the day.Mom had forgotten her wallet with insurance cards and ID. I gave the new office staff the print out from her primary care doctor visit that we had put in the Notebook just the week before. There was all the information the new office needed! Then they got all the meds plus history. Major hassles for everyone were averted. The transition to the new doctor was smooth. Mom is really happy. Change is usually difficult for her yet thanks to Hilary and the Notebook we aced it!Anyone managing a chronic health problem(s), or helping anyone else manage, would benefit from one of these Notebooks.

I'm a physician with over 40 years of practice experience. Patient care is incredibly complex. Dr. Siebens' notebook is a superb tool to help manage a patient's care and for a care partner to know what's going on at any time. Most recently, I used the notebook to help care for a personal friend who is post-stroke and in a nursing home. This notebook has been invaluable in helping coordinate his many aspects of care. This is truly an excellent tool. Highly recommended.

I'm not a doctor, but a busy professional with four busy kids -- and well aware of how often we postpone making healthcare decisions until "something happens." Well, something always happens, and now, thanks to my Siebens Notebook, all my medical info is up-to-date and in one well-organized, easy-to-use binder. It puts my mind at ease, it makes it easier for my doctors to coordinate the care I need, and my kids know where to find it. Highly recommended.
