Managing medication and routines for elderly parents

Keep it visible and simple

A clear, visible system — a weekly pill organiser, a written schedule on the fridge — reduces the chance of missed or doubled doses and makes it easy for any carer to pick up where you left off.

Build medication into the daily rhythm

Linking medication times to existing habits, like meals or waking up, makes routines easier to stick to and easier to hand over to a carer without confusion.
