Medication Management

Complex regimens, administered exactly right, every single time.

A HomeCare Roots pediatric nurse providing medication management in a family home.
Covered at no out-of-pocket cost for qualifying Georgia families

What it is

Accurate administration and reconciliation of complex regimens, with side-effect monitoring and pharmacy coordination.

Medically fragile children are frequently on a dozen or more medications, several of them high-alert, on schedules that shift after every specialist appointment. Keeping that straight is a clinical job, and doing it at 2am while exhausted is how good parents make understandable mistakes.

Our nurses administer to physician orders, reconcile the list after every change, watch for interactions and side effects, and keep the pharmacy ahead of your refills instead of behind them.

Who this is for: Children on complex, high-alert or frequently changing medication regimens that require skilled administration and monitoring.
