Home Care Medication Reminders
Seniors use more prescription and over-the-counter medicines than any other age group. The proper administration of multiple medications throughout the day can be a challenge for most people, especially for the elderly.
Managing medications properly is vital to your loved one’s health. Medication reminders are one of the important services we can provide. Our caregivers can assist in medication management by tracking medication times and reminding clients to take their medications on schedule as well as reporting side effects of these medications to family members and appropriate medical personnel. We can conduct a complete inventory of medications upon start of service, and Merry Home Healthcare can update as needed.
