Medication Support Services

At Nurse4You Home Care, we ensure safe and timely medication management tailored to your needs. Our services are provided by qualified healthcare professionals, with support levels based on regulatory scope of practice.

1. Medication Reminders (Provided by Health Care Assistants - HCAs)

Health Care Assistants (HCAs) play a vital role in prompting and reminding clients to take their prescribed medications. While they do not administer medications, their support includes:

• Timely verbal reminders to take medications as scheduled.

• Assistance with opening medication containers (e.g., pill bottles, blister packs).

• Documentation of medication intake for family or health records.

• Observing and reporting any missed doses or concerns to the care team.

Note: HCAs do not handle medication dosage adjustments, injections, or controlled substances.

2. Medication Administration (Provided by Licensed Practical Nurses - LPNs)

For clients requiring direct medication management, our Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) provide clinical oversight, including:

• Safe administration of oral, topical, eye/ear drops, and pre-filled injectable medications (e.g., insulin).

• Dosage verification against physician orders to prevent errors.

• Monitoring for side effects and reporting changes to the prescribing doctor.

• Medication reconciliation to avoid interactions during care transitions.

• Specialized support for complex regimens (e.g., diabetes, anticoagulants).

LPNs work under medical directives and collaborate with RNs/physicians as needed.
