Frequently asked questions
What is Housing & Living Arrangements in the Sandwich directory?
Housing & Living Arrangements is one of Sandwich's curated categories of resources for caring for aging parents and loved ones. Each channel in this category is reviewed by our community and linked to real providers, articles, and tools.
How do I pick a housing & living arrangements channel?
Browse the channel grid below — each channel shows a short description, view count, and community activity. Click through to see posts, providers, and related resources. Save channels you find useful to revisit later.
When should I start planning for aging parents?
Follow the 40-70 Rule: when you turn 40 or your parents turn 70, whichever comes first, start the conversation. Starting early gives you more options, less stress, and time to make thoughtful decisions rather than emergency ones.
Is Sandwich free?
Yes. Browsing the directory, reading posts, and subscribing to the newsletter are all free. Sandwich is free for families and supported by providers who list in the marketplace.
