Medication Management Systems
Every day, medication management helps people to correctly manage their prescription therapies more effectively. We use medication management tools to ensure patients are taking the right medication at the right time.
SimpleMed
This simple, compartmentalized medicine system provides an easy way for someone to be reminded to take the right medicines in the right dose at the right time. Available with or without monthly monitoring, the system can drive medication compliance to more than 98 percent. SimpleMed can dispense up to four times per day for seven days while sending email or text messages to caregivers to keep them informed when medications are taken or missed.
MedReady
Healthcom modifies the standard MedReady, equipping it with a wireless transmitter for communications with CareLink. When a medication dosage is due, the unit creates a visual and auditory alert. If the medicine is not removed within one hour, the unit notifies the CareLink system which in turn notifies our response center. Monthly service includes a personal call to the client or family on each overdue dosage. Compliance information through the CareLink unit is posted and accessible through Family Access Anywhere.
Our clinical pathways
Heritage Home Care is an expert in assisting our clients in managing their chronic illness. Our beliefs are that when our patients and families have the knowledge and tools to manage their own disease they maintain their health and independence longer. This results in a healthier community and reduction of total health care costs.
