Managing medications correctly is one of the most important aspects of homecare. For clients taking multiple medications at different times of day, getting it right can be the difference between good health and a serious health event.
What Does Medication Management Involve?
- Prompting clients to take their medication at the correct time
- Administering medication where the carer has been trained and assessed to do so
- Keeping accurate records of medication given
- Ordering repeat prescriptions and liaising with pharmacies
- Reporting any concerns about side effects or missed doses
How We Ensure Safety
