Why Medication Reminders Matter as We Age

Many older adults live with more than one chronic condition. That often means several prescriptions, sometimes from more than one doctor.

Each extra medicine adds risk. Drugs can interact or cause side effects. It also gets easier to miss a dose or take a double dose by mistake. Keeping track is hard for older adults and for the family members who care for them.

How Our Caregivers Help with Medicines

A Care By You caregiver gives your loved one a verbal reminder when it is time to take their medicine. A friendly prompt helps them stick to the routine their doctor has set.

Our caregivers remind only. They do not give medication, hand it out, set it up or manage it.

Care By You provides nonmedical homemaker and companion care. We do not provide personal care or medical care.

Reminders as Part of Everyday Companion Care

Medication reminders often sit within a wider care plan. The same caregiver can offer company, prepare meals, do light housekeeping and run errands.

Care can run a few hours a day, or up to 24 hour care.

Getting Started with Care by You

Care starts with a free in home assessment. We meet your loved one, learn their routine and check that we can meet their needs.

We match a caregiver to your loved one’s personality. If the match does not feel right, you can ask for a different caregiver.

Care By You is registered with Florida AHCA for homemaker and companion services and holds a BBB A+ rating. We serve Sarasota County, Manatee County and Charlotte County. Call 941.451.0696 or 941.334.0941, or email admin@carebyyoufl.com.
