Proper medication management is essential for maintaining health, preventing complications, and ensuring the effectiveness of prescribed treatments. Hopebridge Home Health offers expert Medication Management services designed to help patients stay on track with their medications while minimizing risks and optimizing health outcomes.
Why The Increased Risk And The Need For Proper Medication Management?
Vision Impairment
Elders can mistake one bottle of medication for another or misread dosing instructions.
Hearing Loss
The inability to hear a nurse, doctor or pharmacist’s instructions can lead to mishandling a medication.
Physical Impairment and Mobility Issues
Problems swallowing, the inability to move easily and comfortably and pain can lead to a loss in motivation to take needed medications.
Social Isolation
Elders living alone are more likely to not comply with medication regimes. Further, they are less likely to report side effects.
Memory Loss
Failure to remember the day of the week, recall whether a medication was already taken or simply forgetting to take needed medication altogether increases the likelihood of complications.
How Can We Give You Peace Of Mind?
- Regular visits from a licensed nurse to set up medication regimes and explain instructions on dosing.
- Nursing visits to answer questions and offer a clear understanding of side effects and problems to watch for. We aim to teach medication management to all those involved.
- A 24-hour on-call nurse for any complications that arise.
- Nursing aides available for in-home visits to help remind, observe and report problems.
- Licensed staff to monitor symptoms and side-effects, especially for those medications affecting thinking and balance.
When you, as a family member cannot set up the medications, do not feel confident explaining complicated medication regimes, or cannot make sure medication is being taken correctly or on time, there is help available! This is where home health care can bridge the gap by providing a greater level of safety for elders in their homes.
