The Importance of Reliable Medication Reminders for Seniors
Seniors are more likely to take a variety of medications throughout the day. Medicines that must be taken at specified times of the day – in the morning, afternoon, or before bedtime – as well as medications that seniors must take with food, water, or on an empty stomach – are standard. It is necessary to take medications as prescribed and regularly to succeed in most cases. It can severely affect a family member's general health if they neglect to take their blood pressure medicine. However, it might be challenging for seniors with conditions like dementia to keep track of many drug schedules and instructions. That's why at Visiting Angels of Tucker, our caregivers are focused on helping clients ensure they take their medication when needed.
The following are some of the senior support services we provide to the elderly:
- Set a timer for your loved one to remember to take their pills;
- Set a voice reminder to remind your loved one when to take their medication;
- Make sure they follow any medicine directions, such as taking it with food or a full glass of water;
- Keeping an eye on seniors while taking or administering medication to ensure they are doing it correctly;
- Keep track of the dates and times your senior loved one took each medication so that family members know how it was taken;
- Keep an eye out for any side effects or symptoms when new medications are introduced;
- Reminding them when they're running low on their medication and helping them order refills from the local pharmacy;
- Reminding them to schedule an appointment with their doctor if it's time to renew a prescription.
We may also email seniors medication reminders to ensure they take their medications correctly and on time each day. Because we only provide essential in-home senior support services, we cannot write prescriptions or organize pill bottles.
