About medication reminders

What it usually involves

Prompting your loved one to take their medicines at the right times, checking the pack, and noting if a dose is missed.

How a self-employed carer can help

Reminders and prompts as agreed with you. They can't change doses or make medical decisions. Whether they do more, such as handing over tablets or applying creams, is agreed directly with them, depending on their experience.

Questions families ask

Can the carer help with repeat prescriptions?

Many will. The pharmacy or the NHS App can make ordering easier, with your loved one's agreement.

How can we make medication simpler?

Ask the pharmacist about blister packs and a medicines review. A simple chart by the kettle helps everyone.

Why are some listings marked Sponsored?

Providers can pay to appear first in their area. They're always labelled, and only shown first if they offer what you asked for.

Why I started Carers & Cleaners

When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
