Why Medication Reminders Are Important
Most medications need to be taken according to instructions given by a doctor or otherwise they won’t be effective. Some pills need to be taken with food, others on an empty stomach, while for some medications it is extremely important that they are taken in the morning/evening. If your loved one needs to take several different medications throughout the day, following all those different instructions may be too confusing or complicated, especially if they suffer from dementia.
Our in-home caregivers can verbally remind your loved one to take their pills or set a timer that will help them remember to do so. We can also make sure that instructions for medications are followed and keep an eye on your loved one when they are taking their pills to make sure they have done it successfully. Our caregivers can also supervise your parent and keep their eyes open for unwanted side-effects.
If your loved one doesn’t take their medications correctly or consistently, it can have serious negative effects.
