Many seniors take multiple medications on a daily basis and have to be careful when and how they take them. For instance, some medications need to be taken at a certain time of the day and others should be taken before, during or after a meal. Managing complex medication schedules can be difficult for older adults, especially those with cognitive conditions.

1. Either verbally reminding your loved one when to take their medications or setting a timer so they could manage their medication schedule even when home alone
2. Ensuring medication instructions are being followed
3. Watching your loved one take their medication to be certain they do it properly
4. Noting down the dates and times that each medication was taken
5. Looking out for any medication side effects
