Benefits of Medication Reminders for Seniors in East Bernard, TX and Nearby Areas

Most seniors take at least one medication throughout the day. Since these pills need to be taken at a certain time of the day and before/during/after a meal it is easy to see how older adults who need to take several meds can get easily confused. Our caregivers can help your loved one follow the instructions and make sure they don’t forget to take their dose.

Depending on your parent’s preferences, our caregivers can either set a timer so that your loved one knows when to take their meds or give them a verbal reminder. Some meds need to be taken with food or with a full glass of water, so our caregivers can make sure that all the instructions are followed. If needed, our professionals can keep an eye on your loved one and watch them take their meds to be sure that it is done successfully. Since most medications have side effects, our caregiver can supervise your parent and notify you if they notice something unusual.

In order to be effective, medications need to be taken correctly and consistently. For example, if your parent skips their blood pressure medications, they can negatively affect their health.
