Avoid poor medication adherence...

 



Dear Concerned Caregiver,


More than half of U.S. adults have one or more chronic conditions that require taking medications. However, systemic, socioeconomic, and individual factors can lead to poor medication adherence. Not only is medication nonadherence “estimated to cause 125,000 avoidable deaths in the U.S. each year,” but it also comes at a high cost in medical bills, according to HomeCare Magazine. The annual cost in the U.S. for hospitalizations due to nonadherence is $100 billion to $300 billion. Non-adherence also “contributes to the 60% to 65% of individuals with medical debt who file for bankruptcy each year,” according to the article.



Electronic Caregiver offers an affordable way to help the aging and chronically ill stick to their prescribed health care regimen. Along with medication reminders, the Pro Health offers 24/7 emergency response and physician-on-demand services. Patients can also track important vitals, such as pulse oximetry, blood pressure, and blood glucose levels. Designated caregivers and providers get threshold alerts and actionable data in real-time, catching any signs of health decline early on and preventing hospitalization. What’s more, is that the Pro Health is Medicaid reimbursed in many areas for qualifying individuals. Don’t wait to get the support you need to manage your health effectively. With Electronic Caregiver’s Pro Health, managing your health has never been so effortless.

Seniors, stay hydrated tips. Plus Minnesota needs Interviewers for Assisted Living Residents and Nursing Homes. Great pay and only 20 hours per week.

  I’m spreading the word about the MN QOL project! (See below).  SENIORS, STAY COOL AND STAY HYDRATED.  Stay in air-conditioned buildings as much as possible. If your home doesn't have air conditioning, contact your local health department or locate an air-conditioned shelter in your area. Do not rely on a fan as your main cooling source when it's really hot outside. Drink more water than usual and  don't wait  until you're thirsty to drink. If your doctor limits the amount of fluids you drink or has you on water pills, ask them how much you should drink during hot weather. Don't use the stove or oven to cook—it will make you and your house hotter. Wear loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing. Take cool showers or baths to cool down. Do not engage in very strenuous activities and get plenty of rest. Check on a friend or neighbor and have someone do the same for you.
