Medication Reminders

Nurse and senior reviewing medicationsAt the Oak Park Arms, medication reminders are provided to ensure medication is taken at the right times. Our care team members provide a cup of water or juice and will document that the medications were taken. Medications are stored in pre-prepared planners located in a locked box in the privacy of a resident’s apartment. Scheduled medication reminders are available up to four times a day or as needed.

Medication Management

Medication management and setting up the pill box can be completed by the Oak Park Arms nurse who will manage the current medication list, take care of refills, maintain proper storage of the medication, communicate with the physician and hospital, reconcile medications after a hospitalization and oversee the overall management of the resident’s medications.
