RightMeds Medication Management
Nurse Medication Setup
You will meet with a Right at Home nurse and she will assess and review your medications with you and your family. Medications will be laid out in a daily planner by a Right at Home Registered Nurse for a one or two week period. The Right at Home nurse will review with your loved one about how to take their medications correctly and help answer any questions they (or you) may have. We will set up an ongoing schedule for the Right at Home nurse to come out to fill further medication trays.
Full Medication Setup
You will meet with a Right at Home nurse and she will assess your medication with you and your family. We will install your Philips Medication Dispensing machine and load it with the appropriate medications (a landline phone line must be available.)

The stakes are high for medication mistakes...
Medication errors are common and costly
RightMeds from Right at Home allows families to feel confident that their loved one’s medication is being taken in compliance with doctor’s orders. Medication non-compliance is one of the major factors of hospitalization in our elders due to multiple psychological and physical challenges and the amount of medications being prescribed per individual.
The high toll of medication mistakes
You rely on your medications to keep you healthy. But complex medication schedules can lead to mistakes: missed doses, taking incorrect amounts, or taking pills at the wrong time. These mistakes could potentially lead to unnecessary doctor or hospital visits or illness.
- For seniors, approximately 1 out of 10 hospital admissions are the result of incorrect use of medications
- Not taking medication correctly can have serious consequences, including increased discomfort, inadequate disease prevention and possibly even death.
We are here to help with this complicated but important task. The Right at Home team will work with your family to make sure your loved one safely takes their medication.
We offer two RightMeds services: Right at Home Nurse Medication Setup and Right at Home Full Medication Solution. When you meet with a Right at Home representative, they will help you and your loved one decide which is the best direction.
