SERIES OF MEDICATIONS.
AND I WAS LAYING THEM OUT.
YOU MAKE IT ALL SO MUCH EASIER.
>> IT IS SUPER EASY.
WHEN YOU THINK OF TODAY AND
THERE WERE CRAZY STATISTICS
ABOUT WHEN PEOPLE DON'T TAKE
MEDICATIONS.
MEDICATIONS. TODAY, IN THE U.S., TWO OUT OF
THREE PEOPLE DON'T TAKE THE
MEDS.
MEDS.
MEDS. .
.

MAY TAKE THINGS TWICE.
>> AND THERE'S 125,000 PEOPLE
THAT PASS AWAY EVERY YEAR
BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT TAKING
MEDICATIONS LIKE THEY'RE
SUPPOSED TO.
SUPPOSED TO. HUGE FRIGHTENING STATISTIC.
AND IT'S OTHER $300 BILLION
DOLLARS ADDED BACK TO THE HEALTH
CARE SYSTEM AND PEOPLE ARE BACK
IN THE HOSPITAL.
IT'S A BIG, BIG ISSUE.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. AND WHEN YOU HAVE TO KEEP UP ALL
DAY, YOU MIGHT START OFF GOOD
THE FIRST FEW DAYS AND MORE AND
MORE ESPECIALLY SENIORS WILL
SKIP THE PROCESS.
IF YOU'RE GIVING THE MEDICATION
TO IMPROVE SOMETHING, IT'S
COUNTERACTIVE.
COUNTERACTIVE. .
.
. >>
. >> YES.
>> YES.
>> YES. EXACTLY.
EXACTLY.
EXACTLY. >> WHAT WE DID AS A PHARMACY AND
A TEAM, WE THOUGHT, OKAY, THIS
IS A BIG ISSUE.
HOW CAN WE IMPACT THAT AND
IMPROVE THAT?
IMPROVE THAT? WE DECIDED ONE OF THE BEST WAYS
IS TO DO A SYSTEM THAT SORTS THE
MEDICATIONINGS FOR THE PATIENTS
AND TELLS THEM WHEN TO TAKE IT.
>> MED SIGN ON TIME.
AND ONE OF THE REASONS WHY I
MOVED MY MOM TO ASKED LIVING, I
KNEW SHE WOULD HAVE THE
OVERSIGHT WITH THE MEDICATIONS.
THAT SCARED ME.
AND YOU SEE THAT
THIS CAN OFFER INDEPENDENCE.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
THIS CAN OFFER INDEPENDENCE. >> ABSOLUTELYúYOU HAVE CARE GIV
THIS CAN OFFER INDEPENDENCE. >> ABSOLUTELYúYOU HAVE CARE GIVN
FAMILIES.
FAMILIES.
FAMILIES. AND EVERYONE IS WELL MEANING AND
THEY'LL GO TO THE TRADITIONAL
MEDICATION BOX OR MED PLANNER,
WATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT.
AND THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS YOU
END UP WITH OLDER ADULTS THAT
EITHER DON'T REMEMBER WHAT DAY
IT IS, THEY DON'T REMEMBER THE
DAY OF THE WEEK AND THINGS START
FADING.
FADING.
FADING. IF YOU DROP THE BOX, KNOCK THE
BOX, PILLS ON THE FLOOR.
AND WE HAVE HAD SITUATIONS, I
WALKED INTO ONE OF OUR CLIENT'S
HOMES AND SHE HAD STRAITED THEM
PERFECTLY BY COLOR.
WE HAD PINK HERE, GREEN HERE, P
AND HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM.
BECAUSE AS A CARE PROVIDER, WE
DON'T -- WHAT WE DO IS WE DON'T
SORT MEDS AND FILL PILL BOXES.
WE'RE TRYING TO CALL THE FAMILY,
THE PHYSICIAN, AND GET SOMEONE
HERE.
HERE.
HERE. AND
HERE. AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT SOMEONE
IS TAKING.
IS TAKING. >> YOU HAVE IT ALL PACKAGED UP
FOR US.
FOR US.
FOR US. AND THESE ARE ON THE
TABLE.
TABLE.
TABLE. YOU CAN'T MAKE A MISTAKE.
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU CAN'T.
YOU CAN'T. IT'S SIMPLE.
IT'S SIMPLE. AND WE DIDN'T WANT THE SENIORS
TO HAVE TO ADD COST.
THIS IS A FREE SERVICE.
>> THAT'S AMAZING.
>> AND WE ALSO KNEW THAT SOME
PEOPLE ARE HOME BOUND AND THEY
CAN'T GO TO THE STORE.
SO WE DELIVER TO THEIR HOME FOR
FREE AS WELL.
>> THAT'S AWESOME.
ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT. WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN YOUR HAND?
>> WHAT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT IS
THE ON BOARDING.
AND A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE
PACKAGING IVANKA TRUMP.
LET'S SAY YOURSELF OR A LOVED
ONE TAKES THEIR MEDICATION THREE
TIMES A DAY.
SO OUR PACKAGING IS FOR THE
ENTIRE MONTH.
ENTIRE MONTH. YELLOW IS THEA.
M. MEDS.
M. MEDS.
M. MEDS. WHITE THE NOON.
AND P.M.
AND P.M.
AND P.M. IS THE BLUE.
AND THEN I'M GOING TO HOLD
THIS ONE.
THIS ONE.
THIS ONE. AND FOR EXAMPLE, THE BEGINNING
OF THE MONTH TO THE END OF THE
MONTH, ALL 30 DAYS, PRESORTED.
THE DRIVER AT NO CHARGE BRINGS
IT TO THE HOUSE, DELIVERS IT
JUST LIKE THIS.
IT WILL SAY THE NAME.
AND THE ORANGE IS THE
EVENING.
EVENING.
EVENING. NOW, IF YOU FLIP IT OVER, THIS
IS THE GOOD STUFF.
ON THE BACK, IT WILL LIST EVERY
SINGLE MEDICATION THAT'S IN
HERE.
HERE.
HERE. THEY KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TAKING.
KIND OF THE BOTTOM, WE CALL IT
THE TABLE OF CONTENTS.
THEY CAN SEE THE PICTURE OF THE
PILLS.
PILLS.
PILLS. WHAT IS WHAT.
AND WHEN IT'S TIME TO TAKE
THE MEDICATION, MOST PEOPLE POP
IT WITH A PEN AND DUMP IT OUT.
>> AND WHAT'S GREAT ABOUT THAT,
LET'S SAY THEY GET ANOTHER
PRESCRIPTION TO INTERACT WITH
THE MEDICATIONINGS YOU'RE
TAKING, YOU CAN GO AND SAY THIS
IS WHAT I'M TAKING.
.
.
. >>
. >> YES.
>> YES.
>> YES. >> AND A BIG BENEFIT OF USING
ONE PHARMACY FOR ALL THE MEDS,
THE PHARMACIST LOOKS AT THE MEDS
AND SEE THE MED THAT'S GOING TO
CAUSE A MIX OF MEDS TO MAKE YOU
SDIZ SI MAYBE.
>> AND A LOT TO HAVE TIMES THE
PHARMACISTS CATCH THAT.
>> EXACTLY.
>> EXACTLY. >> ALL RIGHT.
AND I KNOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
THIS IN REFERENCE TO SENIORS, I
NEED IT MYSELF.
