Medication scheduling

A nurse keeps the chart. A carer records the dose on the round.

Open Medications on the web. For each medicine add:

  • Name and dose as on the pharmacy label
  • Times of day (morning, midday, evening, bedtime - or custom)
  • PRN / as-needed rules when relevant: indication, max dose, max in 24 hours, notes

After a hospital discharge or a new supply, a nurse re-checks the chart the same day.

Carers record given, missed, or refused on the round. Relatives do not record doses.
