7. Medication Management
Aging people are usually on medication, especially if they have certain conditions. Moreover, some of them may put their lives at risk if they don’t take the prescribed drugs. We all miss a dose from time to time, but elderly people are more likely to do so on a regular basis.
Memory isn’t what it used to be, so you may worry that your loved one who’s living alone isn’t properly taking their medication. Conversely, some seniors may even forget that they’ve already taken medication that day, so they take it again. This could also be dangerous.
In a nursing facility, staff can take care of this for your loved one and administer their medication.
