Medication Management

At ECC, our goal is to make sure that our clients get the right medication on the right schedule.

Getting Started with Medication Management

We start with a comprehensive assessment of the client’s medication needs. Our goal is to get a full understanding of each client’s needs and medications and to create an easy medication administration system. Our nurse will check-in regularly to make sure everything is on track and will address changes and challenges as they arise especially during vulnerable periods such as after a hospital discharge.

We Cover all the Bases

Our medication management assessment and administration process includes:

• Determining all medications – prescription and over-the-counter and the ideal schedule
• Providing education on each medication
• Gathering physician and pharmacy information
• Working with physicians to address questions or concerns
• Reviewing and documenting medical history, including allergies
• Assessing current challenges
• Coordinating timely refills from local or mail-in pharmacies
• We maintain a current list of information related to all medications
• Understanding insurance coverage and requirements
• Discussing the options for medication management including:
  • Loading of medication boxes
  • Arranging for the installation of devices used for medication administration or arranging for medications to be packaged in easy-to-administer blister packs when appropriate

We address changes and challenges as they come up and provide an opportunity to answer questions or concerns.
