Home Care Medication Reminder Services For Elderly In Toronto and GTA
Reminding a loved one to take medication may seem like an unnecessary task but we cannot emphasize its importance enough. With increased trips to the doctor and hospital, many seniors are prescribed medication to help manage illness. Remembering to take medication is a challenge for many of the clients we serve and not just because of hectic schedule and routines. The fact is that many of our clients suffer from memory loss and need assistance adhering to their medication regimen.
Complying with doctor’s orders for prescribed medication is critical to the overall health of your loved one and their quality of life. This alone can make all the difference in making a health care plan effective.
At Carefect, it’s important to us that your family member is healthy and takes his or her medication correctly. To help facilitate this, our caregivers are standing by to encourage your loved one to take their medication on time. While our caregivers do not administer the medication, they are here to gently remind our clients when it is time to take medication.
Our caregivers can help with:
- Going over list of prescribed medication with seniors
- Discussing medication schedule
- Picking up medications
- Supervising medication usage by seniors
- Helping schedule medical appointments
Benefits of Medication Reminders
When medication is taken improperly, it can lead to a host of problems. Having a dedicated caregiver remind your loved one to take their medication at the right time often gives family members a sense of peace.
Our staff is on hand to supervise medication usage and give medication reminders. Providing this service creates an opportunity for an additional person to work together with the client and their doctor to ensure that the health care plan is being adhered to.
Sometimes seniors are unable to understand the reason why they need to take certain medication. Our caregivers can help explain the importance of each prescribed medication, and this understanding often encourages clients to comply with their doctor’s orders.
