Copilots In Care — planning simplified, make your wishes known
Planning Simplified.
Make your wishes known.
Copilots In Care pairs you with an expert counselor who helps you reflect on what matters, talk it through with your family, and get it documented with your doctor.
A dedicated Copilot.
Someone who comes to you.
Your Copilot calls to hear your story, gives you a journal to think it through, and then comes to your home to help your family get on the same page.
A rock-solid plan.
So the care you get is the care you chose.
Everyone on the same page, with the choices that matter written down and shared with the people who will honour them.
Why this exists
Today 70% of seniors want to pass away at home, but only 30% actually do.
That is the sentence the company put at the top of its LinkedIn page, and it is the whole reason it existed. Few people have the right documentation, and fewer still have family members who understand their medical wishes well enough to make cohesive decisions in a time of crisis. If a patient does not say what they want before a crisis, they get the medical system’s default: the most aggressive treatments, focused on preserving quantity of life rather than quality of life.
How it works
Starting with Copilots is fast, simple, and free
Five steps. One counselor. A plan everyone can act on.
You sign up online

You talk on the phone

You reflect on your goals

You share with your doctor
You share with your physicians the values and choices that matter to you, and receive their help documenting and honouring them.
We had a living will but until we started this service that piece of paper didn’t mean anything. The process made me feel comfortable and prepared.
When you finish
You will have created a rock-solid advance care plan
And with everyone on the same page, you can rest assured that you will receive care that honours your wishes.
The plan is built from the choices your physicians already work with — the DNR form and the POLST form — which is why it is usable when it matters.
Joining the service
Five paths, already on the forms your doctor uses
The company explained each one, in plain language, and pointed to the question in the Prepare Guidebook it answers.
CPR
The main choice on the Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) form.
Comfort Focused Care
Maximizing comfort by relieving pain and suffering.
Selective Treatment
Treating conditions while avoiding any burdensome measures.
Full Treatment
Prolonging life by all medically effective means.
Palliative Care
Relief from the symptoms, pain and stress of a serious illness.
Who does the work
Expert counselors, not an app
Your Copilot is an expert counselor dedicated to helping you communicate your wishes, and empowering your team to support you in achieving them. All four the company introduced were master’s-level social workers, with backgrounds in hospital palliative care, ICU social work, adoption and community health.
The company was co-founded by a physician and an engineer, and advised by three leaders in geriatrics and palliative care.
