Problem Solving Medication Management: A Workbook for Care Partners

Topics: Medications

As we age, managing medications can be more difficult, increasing the risk of medication errors or missed doses. While family and friends may step in to help, most lack formal medical training, making it challenging to organize pills, track schedules, or identify side effects. Without the right tools or knowledge, tracking medications can become overwhelming, leading to mistakes, stress, and burnout. The Problem Solving Medication Management: A Workbook for Care Partners helps people support older adults in managing their medication needs. Not all strategies apply to all situations; care partners are encouraged to use and adapt strategies to their specific circumstances.
