It’s important to help seniors use their medications properly and consistently to ensure they get the intended benefits and avoid the possible side effects. Ensuring that seniors are able to access their medication is the first step. For those who are no longer able to drive, having someone provide them with transportation can ensure they are able to pick up their medications when they need to. Seniors who have trouble keeping track of their medications and when to take them may need assistance with scheduling and storage of their medications. Monitoring for side effects may also be required in case they are unaware of their symptoms.
