Our Seniors in Motion initiative aims to equip older adults with the tools necessary to proficiently manage their medications. To this end, we offer a Pharmaceutical Intervention Workshop designed to cater to the unique needs of seniors.
Pharmaceutical intervention is more than just taking prescribed drugs; it also involves understanding what medication you are taking, how and when to take it, and recognizing its effects on your overall health. Mismanaged medication can lead to harmful side-effects and may reduce the effectiveness of therapy. Our workshop is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of their medications and to prevent these potential issues.
The Pharmaceutical Intervention Workshop covers a variety of topics. Participants will learn how to interpret medication labels, manage dosage schedules, and cope with side effects and drug interactions. We place great emphasis on the importance of medication adherence and provide strategies to assist with regular intake. Before the workshop, participants can anonymously submit any questions about their medications, vaccines, or other concerns. These questions are addressed by a pharmacist during the workshop, who will also facilitate an open discussion amongst participants.
The goal of our Pharmaceutical Intervention Workshop is to empower seniors to take an active role in their medication management. We provide the necessary knowledge and tools to foster efficient management. Through this learned understanding, participants can potentially avoid unnecessary hospital visits due to medication errors and ensure their medications are working as effectively as possible.
