ABOUT THIS SERVICE

A reassuring reminder as part of the daily routine

Remembering medication at the right point in the day can sometimes become more difficult. A familiar prompt from a care professional can provide helpful reassurance while allowing the individual to remain in control of their own routine.

Abide’s Medication Prompting service is shaped around the individual and their agreed support plan, providing friendly reminders as part of a regular visit and helping daily routines feel more manageable.
