Medication Reminders

Many of our clients are prescribed multiple medications. Keeping track of all the different medications and administration instructions can be difficult and, in some cases, impossible. Some of our cognitively and physically disabled clients are simply unable to track and time the administration of multiple medications. Medications often come with strict guidelines such as:

•    Take X times per day
•    Take with food
•    Take between meals
•    Do not take with X type of food or drink
•    Take every X hours
•    Do not take more frequently than 4 every X hours
•    Do not combine this medication with X medication
•    Take before bed
•    Do not take before bed

It’s very easy to get confused and under or overdose a medication. In some cases, this can be extremely dangerous and life-threatening.

Presidio Home Care will provide an easy worksheet and help you or your loved one create a straight-forward schedule to track medication. Our caregivers will provide timely reminders and make sure that medication is not over or under-dosed. In some cases, Presidio Home Care will recommend partnering with a visiting nurse to organize the medications into a simple medication dispensing box. Presidio Home Care also has access to pharmacies that will pre-package complex medication regimens into easy to read, easy to open packets that are clearly labeled.
