Our Service Offering: Senior Home Medication Management

Seniors are liable to develop more chronic illnesses than any other age group. This is because their immunity and health begin to deteriorate at an old age. As a result, their prescriptions are a lot bigger. Managing such extensive prescriptions can be a challenge, especially for them, which means a medical mishap is very likely to occur. Medication management can help you avoid such risky situations.

These mishaps are made further likely by the fact that the packaging and instructions may be poor. Additionally, the medicines may react to other foods and medicines. Overdosing is also very likely when medicines are not available in pill form. As a result, seniors can face dangerous health effects that can make medication errors potentially fatal. Our caregiver’s medication management ensures such a situation will not occur.

How do you remind seniors to take medication?

What is the best medicine reminder?

As such, there is no set-in-stone medicine reminder strategy since each works differently for different people. For example, seniors who are not familiar with technology may not have a good experience with digital medicine reminders. Similarly, some seniors might find in-person reminders annoying, so they may find digital methods better. We make sure to use medicine reminders suitable for your loved ones.

It was such a pleasure to work with Loving Homecare for my Dad's recovery after his stroke. We needed overnight care for him and Loving Homecare was able to find us the most gentle and caring caregivers we could have wished for. Tanner and Leslie were also there to answer and help whenever questions arose. I would not hesitate to call Loving Homecare again to help with my parents.

After several weeks of caring for my husband at home following a severe leg injury that rendered him immobile and unsafe to be left alone for any extended time, I desperately needed help and some respite. I was referred to Loving Homecare, Inc by a very trusted friend who had used them in the past and referred others who were highly satisfied with every aspect of their care and services. Tanner Gish and his team could not have been more responsive and caring.

VETERAN FRIENDLY 🇺🇸 as a Veteran I am skeptical of any business that says they are Military friendly but Loving Homecare lives up to their name.
Years ago I sent a Family Friend, who is a Combat Veteran, to this business. I only heard positive things. Loving Homecare is approved by the VA and I highly encourage any person, Veteran or not, to call and try out their services. Tanner & Orianne are great trustworthy, people.
