The Importance of an Up-to-Date Medication List

As a Board Certified Patient Advocate, I often see how outdated or unorganized medication lists can create serious health risks — from duplicate prescriptions and expired medications to look-alike or sound-alike drug errors.

Maintaining a current medication list isn’t just good practice — it’s essential for safety, communication, and continuity of care.
✔️ Keep one master list of all prescriptions, OTC medications, and supplements
✔️ Bring it to every medical and pharmacy visit
✔️ Review it at least annually or whenever there’s a change in your regimen

Small steps like these can prevent hospitalizations, reduce side effects, and improve overall health outcomes.

Remember, You are not alone in your struggles. Reach out, talk, and seek help when needed.
Mental health matters. Your feelings are valid, and you deserve support.
Take a moment to pause, breathe, and care for yourself — because your mental health matters every day.

Health Planning Summit for Older Aging Adults

As many clients who are 50+, there is an important question we always ask when we meet for the first time to discuss a new project: "How long do you plan to stay in your home?"

This is an important question for us because, as people age, they often plan to downsize into smaller homes, move out of single-family dwellings and move into condominiums or apartments, or move to a different city, province, or country to be closer to other family members. However, we also need to consider whether they might be experiencing issues that might take them to a retirement home sooner rather than later.
