"It’s very exciting and so very much needed! I had first hand experience with it [for my mom]... So many meds and there was no way she could manage them on her own. My sister and I had to take that over."
-
"I’m the DON of an assisted living. This would be so amazing for independent living residents. Especially if there was a way to connect to an EHR so the facility could quickly know if there is a problem with a resident. One of the most common reasons families feel it’s time to move to assisted living is they stop taking their medications correctly."
-
"The lack of facilities that have fully transitioned to electronic healthcare technology solutions plays a tremendous role in medication errors. "
-
"There are not enough caregivers to fill vacancies, despite our training and commitment to orienting a new hire to retain."
-
"Great idea, particularly to address the tremendous shortage of qualified medication administration staff."
-
"Technology for nursing homes suck. There's not enough technology to provide accessible services."
-
"Staffing is always short, so the new hires get thrown on the floor too early, resulting in inadequate training."
-
"My dad is bad at remembering to take the plethora of pills he's currently prescribed. My family actually thinks that forgetting to take his medication on time actually led to him having a stroke. My mom is also older too of course and is just tired.. tired of taking care of everything for everyone. Your device would put our family's minds at ease!!"
-
"This would be great for our in-home care clients. We have a pretty strict med management policy and we enforce, at a minimun, pill planners or pill packs, and more and more we are recommending these types of machines to our clients."
-
"I’ve taken care of both my mom and mother-in-law after major surgeries and it’s taken all my energy and savvy to make sure they get the right meds at the right time, and transfer that info to them after I leave for them to manage themselves."
-
"I think this is an excellent addition to a care system allowing caregivers more time to spend with the elderly. Your device is an excellent way to give back time to caregivers."
-
"As a nurse who’s worked in a nursing home, assisted living, hospital setting and now outpatient care for a lot of geriatric patients I think this is a great idea!"
-
"I love the idea of a med dispenser that also dispenses water! It would eliminate the need to carry the pills to get the water possibly causing dropped or misplaced pills."
-
"I could have definitely used this when my mom was alive."
-
"This is an amazing idea! As a caregiver, our tasks add up and so do our patients. Not having to do one thing will help us so much."
-
"I've worked in Healthcare and my Mom had dementia. I think this is a great idea!"
-
"I can definitely see this being marketed for individuals with dementia. Any little thing that we can do to make their lives slightly more independent is huge!"
-
"I’m a nurse and if I had family members that were elderly that needed this I would totally invest in one."
-
"Great idea for those who can’t be on the front line of home care 24/7!"
-
"This would be so beneficial to us. Wonderful idea."
-
"I think that this is an incredible device that could address racial equity in health outcomes, particularly among the low income population."
-
"Love what you are doing for our older generations! Thank you for your hard work!"
-
"This would be a great device for Home Care patients. Especially for elderly who live on their own."
