There's no such thing as too much planning
This was a good move on the doctor's part.
I'm responsible for quite a few customer's networks (which have documentation anyway) plus my own hosting platform which I run just on my own. Then there's all the gubbins on my home network and various accounts which would be useful for people to access in the event of my demise.
Two close friends have a very heavily encrypted spreadsheet with all my passwords/mfa recovery tokens/network plan etc on it and contact details of the best people to help sort it all out. They don't have the password, and I send them a new copy every ~3 months or when a significant change has taken place. (They always get worried when it comes through and ask if I'm ok!)
My sister and niece have the stupidly long password, and both sets of people have each others contact details and instructions on what to do if I kick the bucket.
It may not be completely fool-proof, but it's as good as I could come up with and it should protect my customers if anything were to happen.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
