What are the most common reasons that seniors end up going to a nursing home? How can older people reducef problems, avoid giving up their ifreedom and ndependence and remain at home? MED-Q Pill Box asked RN's who are devoted to helping people live well in their communities as they age. The anwer was an overwhemling, "Get them to take their medication propery.
The American Hosptial Association confirms their educated, experienced input. It is said that 1 in 4 nursing home admissions is a result of not being able to take their medication properly. The old fashion pill box with a letter for each day of the week stamped on top was not up to the challange.
MED-Q invented an automatic pill dispenser that is more than a pillbox. It is programmable to the precise times medication is needed. If the senior, which happens up to 90% of the time, forgets to take their medication, MED-Q will remind them.
A simple to use pill dispenser for the elderly, the MED-Q has two different alarms that assure the Senior will not miss their medication. The first alarm is a loud beeping that continues to get louder until the medication is taken, Alarm 2 is a flashing LED light that illuminates only the specific pill compartment that needs to be take. Eliminate forgetting and taking the wrong medication, this is the first line of defense against the dreaded nursing home.
