Medication Assistance
Taking medications exactly as prescribed is critical for managing health conditions, promoting recovery, and ensuring long-term well-being. We offer dedicated Medication Assistance services to ensure that you—or your loved one—never miss a dose or take medication incorrectly.
Personalized Medication Support
Whether you require standalone support for medications or would like it incorporated into an existing care package, we will tailor the service to meet your individual needs and schedule. Our carers can visit at specific times that align with your medication timetable—whether that’s once a day, several times daily, or on a weekly basis.
Why Medication Assistance Matters
Many individuals are prescribed multiple medications with varying instructions—some may be taken daily, others weekly, and some multiple times a day. Dosages can also differ. It can be confusing and easy to make mistakes without support. Our trained Home Care Assistants are there to ensure every medication is taken correctly and at the right time.
We help to:
- Prevent missed or duplicated doses
- Reduce the risk of adverse drug interactions
- Monitor medication compliance
- Provide peace of mind to families and loved ones
Enabled Care
All of our Home Care Assistants have up-to-date personalized care plan, which includes:
- Medication schedules
- Dosage instructions
- Special administration requirements (e.g. with food or water)
Prescription Management
In addition to assisting with taking medication, we can:
- Collect new or repeat prescriptions from your pharmacy
- Deliver medications to your home
- Communicate with your GP or pharmacist on your behalf if needed
Comprehensive Record Keeping
Our Home Care Assistants maintain detailed electronic records of all medications administered. This means:
- You and your family have a clear record of care provided
- Nothing is ever missed or taken twice
- Any concerns about side effects or missed doses can be addressed promptly
With our Medication Assistance service, you can relax knowing that professional, reliable support is in place. Your health and safety are always our top priority.
