Medication Management:
Although our caregivers cannot administer medications, they can assist in ensuring that clients take their medication as prescribed. Our caregivers can help with opening medication containers, reading labels, and reminding clients when it is time for their next dose.
Below are a few medication services that our caregivers provide:
-
Monitor your loved one’s medicine and make sure that it is taken on time and in the right dosage.
-
Put the proper dosage of medicine in your loved one’s daily medicine container.
-
Keep a medicine log of what was taken, when and the dosage.
-
California state laws prohibit caregivers in Los Angeles to administrate medicine that is linked to suppositories, IV therapy, force-feeding and injections. Only a licensed nurse can provide these types of services. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
