Medication Support Home Care Services
Managing medication can be complicated - especially when memory loss, poor eyesight, or multiple prescriptions are involved. That's where we can step in.
All of our carers are fully qualified to administer and manage medication safely. Every dose we give is carefully documented, and we always follow prescription directions to the letter.
We take the stress and risk out of medication management by:
Preparing and witnessing medication correctly – ensuring the right dose, at the right time, every time.
Keeping accurate records – detailed documentation on MAR charts so nothing is missed.
Managing stock control – so you never run out unexpectedly.
Chasing and arranging deliveries – liaising with pharmacies to keep prescriptions topped up.
Arranging medication reviews – working directly with your GP to ensure everything stays up to date.
Handling storage and security – keeping medication organised and safely stored.
Our medication management goes beyond the basics. We use advanced alert systems that immediately notify our registered manager if any medication is refused or missed - preventing dangerous overdoses or underdoses before they happen. We also provide specialised support for clients with dementia, Parkinson's disease, and other complex conditions that require precise medication timing and expert handling.
Every medication plan starts with a thorough assessment during an initial home visit. We take the time to understand your needs, your routine, and what matters most to you - so your care is personalised, safe, and maintains your independence and dignity.
Serving Morecambe, Lancaster, Heysham, and surrounding Lancashire areas, we're here to give you and your family complete peace of mind knowing medication is handled safely, professionally, and with care.
Restrictions
It is against our policy for us to administer from dosette boxes (see image). This is because with dosette boxes we don't know what medication is in them, the dose, the expiry, or if it is the correct drug. Blister packs prepared by the pharmacy are safe for us to dispense, as well as boxes from the manufacturer/ prescriber.
