September 11, 2001 — We Remember. 🕊️

Today, we pause to honor the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the courage of first responders and everyday heroes who showed the world what resilience and compassion look like.

At Elder Options, we recognize that many of those we serve remember this day not as a page in a history book, but as a moment they lived. We stand with you in remembrance and reflection.

Let us continue to build a world rooted in empathy, unity, and peace. ❤️🤝

Tips for Managing Medications at Home 💊

Keeping up with multiple medications can be tedious, for both older adults and their families. But a few simple tips and routine changes can help keep things on track and prevent dangerous mistakes. Here are a few helpful tips from the Elder Options' Care Management team to better organize and maintain medication routines:

🕒 Set a Schedule - Use alarms or phone reminders for consistent timing.
📦 Use a Pill Organizer - Weekly pill boxes reduce confusion and lower the chances of missing a dose.
📋 Keep a Medication List - Include names, doses, times, and purposes. (Keep an extra copy handy to bring it to every doctor’s appointment!)
🚫 Watch for Side Effects - Monitor for dizziness, fatigue, or new symptoms. When in doubt, call the doctor.
🆘 Ask for Help - Our Credentialed Care Managers can help organize medications, coordinate with doctors, and help ensure the safety of your loved one.

You don’t have to do it alone. Elder Options is here to make aging at home a safer, simpler, and more supportive experience. 💚
