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 worth asking

Have you helped someone with their medication before?
How would you record that tablets were taken?
What will you do if a dose is missed or refused?
Are you happy to be around pets?

Questions families ask

What if Mum refuses her tablets?

A carer should never force them. They should let the family know, and the GP or pharmacist can advise.

How can we make medication simpler?

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

How does an introduction work?

Choose up to five people from your shortlist and confirm your email. We send each of them your enquiry, and send you their email and phone number, so you can talk directly.

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.
