Default Med-Time pill dispenser.

This might interest a lot of you.

My caregiver's boss{ which my caregiver is my daughter Susan} came out today to redo my paperwork. We talked about how I forget to take my pills as a lot of people do. I also forget that I take them at times and take them again.

Anyway, she gave me a pamphlet on this pill dispenser. I have to call my Social Worker Monday and she said he would ok one for me and it would be paid for.

I wanted to put the phone nos. on here so if any of you might be interested in buying one or seeing if anyone will pay for it for you.

It has a timer on it and what you do is just turn it over and it despenses the pills that you are to take at that time and no more. It can be sat for up to 4 different times a day.

The phone no is 516-536-5850.

Their website is www.amacalert.com.

I hope this helps some of you out. If you are on very many pills and forget to take them, it would be a good investment.

Ada

Thumbs up yep or I will forget

Hi Ada..
I now have a bubble pack with 4 med bubbles for each day (row), each pack contains a week of pills (7 rows of 4) looks like a smallish book, my pharmacy makes them up for me for a month at a time..

I know it's not quite what you are describing but for me it works great cause now I know if I have taken them or not.

Good subject Ada it has made a big diffrence for me.

Thanks an Hugs,
Sandra

Sandra,

What pharmacy do you use that does this for you? I forget my pills all the time. Well I dunno if I forget as much as I dont like to take them so I just end up forgetting them.....
