Anyone know of a company that can assist someone with properly taking their medicines? Haven’t found a care/ support company that can do prescription management also.

Thanks

You could try a company like PillPack. They will deliver you medicine packed and sorted with big labels saying the date and time to take them.

You could also have a doctor order home health nurse for medication management.

A home health company can help you with that.

We use the MedaCube for my mother-in-law, and it seems to work well. It can handle lots of different medicines, and complex schedules. It has an audible notification. so she never misses a dose. It also sends emails to the caregiver if dosage is missed, or when a particular medicine is running low. The only con I can think of is cost.

Thanks. We’re looking at those solutions, I know we set them up and they are automated but this is someone with developing dementia so anything new that is not a person is hard. A person dropping in twice a day would be the most successful approach I think.
