At Visiting Angels Frankenmuth, we provide various senior home care solutions that make daily life easier and more comfortable for older adults aging in place in the Great Lakes Bay area of Michigan. One of those solutions is medication reminders, a service that helps seniors take their prescribed medications correctly, as advised by their physician.

Visiting Angels Provides Medication Reminders so Families and Seniors in Frankenmuth, Saginaw, Bay City, and Surrounding Areas in Michigan Never Have to Worry About Skipped Doses Ever Again

Since we strictly provide essential personal care, we cannot administer medications or organize pill boxes. On the other hand, we can make sure your loved one takes medications and pills previously organized by family members or health care providers.

Why Medication Reminders Are Helpful

Many seniors take between five and ten pills daily, with some older adults requiring even more medications to keep their medical conditions under control. Unfortunately, medications cannot be all taken at once. Some need to be taken in the morning, others in the afternoon or evening. Some need to be taken on an empty stomach, others during a meal or with water. This can all be difficult for a senior to remember, especially if they suffer from a cognitive condition.

Our senior home care solutions can overcome this challenge. Our caregivers can help by:

• Providing verbal medication reminders
• Setting timers for medications that are taken when no one is around
• Ensuring instructions are followed
• Watching seniors take medications to see if it is done properly
• Noting down the dates and times the medications were taken
• Looking out for medication side effects
