LightWell Care at Twin Cities Startup Week · September 14–18, 2026
Twin Cities Startup Week 2026
Caregiving doesn’t stop when the appointment ends.
LightWell Care helps family caregivers understand what’s happening, organize what matters, prepare for what comes next, and find the support they need.
Built for the in-between moments of caregiving.
Find Kathleen at Startup WeekNew this week: EVRKind is now LightWell Care—with a new name, new website, and an expanded vision for supporting family caregivers.
One place to help caregivers figure out what comes next.
Caregiving can mean a doctor visit, an insurance question, a medication change, a family conversation, a hospital discharge—or simply realizing you don’t know where to start. LightWell Care gives caregivers practical support for those moments.
24/7 multilingual support
Caregiving does not keep office hours. LightWell Care is designed to be available when families actually need support, with help across more than 20 languages.
Practical caregiver tools
Digital support is only part of the answer. LightWell Care also includes tools such as the printable Care Journal for caregivers who want a simple way to keep important information together.

The caregiver is a person—not simply the person doing the work.
Healthcare is organized around patients, appointments, providers, benefits, and services. But family caregivers are often the people holding all of those pieces together. LightWell Care is being built around them.
Caregivers deserve care, too.

From healthcare insider to family caregiver
“I spent 14 years at UnitedHealthcare and Optum. I knew the healthcare system well. And when my own father experienced a crisis, I was still lost.”
That experience changed how Kathleen Hustad saw caregiving. LightWell Care grew from the realization that families should not need healthcare expertise to understand what is happening, determine what comes next, and find their way through care.
We’re building a better way through caregiving.
If we met at Twin Cities Startup Week, thanks for stopping by. See what we’re building. Tell us what you think. And if you know a family caregiver who could use a little more support, send them our way.
You'll continue to the secure LightWell Care assistant app, where a separate free login is required.
LightWell Care was formerly EVRKind.
LightWell Care provides general educational, organizational, and navigation support for family caregivers. It does not diagnose conditions, provide medical treatment, or replace qualified healthcare professionals.
