Medication Management
Medication Management is an important service we offer here at The Lodge at Bethany and is essential for seniors who are taking medication. Understanding these steps to managing medications effectively can help keep them safe:
- Review your aging loved one’s medications with their doctor.
- Ask questions and read medication labels
- Learn about possible drug interactions
- Understand potential side effects
- Ask if the dosage is age-appropriate
- Be aware of medications deemed unsafe for seniors
- Make your loved one aware of the dangers of self-prescribing
- Monitor for medication compliance
- Minimize the number of doctors and pharmacists you use
- Help your loved one organize their medications
