Senior Medication Management at Home Helpers in Rio Grande

The Importance of Proper Medication Management for Seniors

The majority of people aged 65 and older take some form of medication, whether it be prescription or over-the-counter, to improve their quality of life or maintain their health. However, managing medications can be a daunting task for seniors, leading to potential risks such as missing doses, double dosing, or mixing medications. This is especially true for seniors who may face obstacles such as small writing on medication bottles, child-proofing of bottles, confusing instructions, and declines in memory, cognitive thinking, and eyesight.

At Home Helpers® Home Care in Rio Grande, we understand the challenges that seniors face in managing their medications. That’s why we offer comprehensive senior medication management services to provide peace of mind for families and ensure that medications are taken properly. Our services include medication reminder calls, prescription pickup, assistance with opening and organizing medications, and even preparing meals if medication needs to be taken with food.
