This review is from: MedCenter Monthly Medication System with Reminder Alarm

Although this system was designed for diabetics, it is also useful for elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment(MCI) or any memory issues. I purchased this system for my mother, after researching its competition. For this price, there is nothing better. They thought of almost everything! It works beautifully, with up to 4 voice alarms, which can be programmed (or even turned off individually, as needed). It even announces the date and time. Having the color coded ends that indicate which days have been taken and completed (red), and which have not (green) is a stroke of genius. I also like the fact that the batteries in the alarm box are double A, rather than some obscure type which can be harder to come by. This system is easy to set up and understand, simple to use and has a terrific price point. I recommend it to anyone who has loved ones with MCI or even certain types of dementia.

This review is from: MedCenter Monthly Medication System with Reminder Alarm

I purchased this item to use for my daily vitamins. It sits on top of my refrigerator and reminds me every morning and every night to take my vitamins. I haven't missed one in 2 months since I started using the system! Although it is said to be used for your medication, the talking clock works great for any kind of reminder. I don't know if it is just because the voice is so loud coming from my kitchen, that it requires me to get out of bed to turn it off, but regardless, I AM taking my pills on time everyday! What more could you ask for? I highly recomend this item.

4.0 out of 5 stars MEDICATION MOTHERING, July 2, 2008

By

The MedCenter is the next-best thing to having your mother near-by; telling you that it is "Time to take your medicine." OK, NAGGING you to take your medication,incessantly, until you stop what you are doing, get up and "Acknowledge" that you have heard the reminder (by pushing a single large button on the automated "voice" of the system.)

Of course,you,or the person caring for you,could bring the alarm along with them when moving about the house. While small enough to permit mobility, (About the size of a case for eye glasses), I prefer keeping it in its assigned position on the Center's base. Somehow, having to go to the center to turn the reminder-script off,(it will list the day's remaining reminders),and, there, seeing a month's worth of medication cases lined up on the systems'step-like platforms and after taking my medication and then turning what was a green-topped case this morning(signifying "full"),to a red-topped case at night,(empty,)somehow helps to curb the "I'll do it in a minute" thinking which,in reality, usually turns into hours and dosing confusion.
Overall, its a great system! A month of medications-at-hand, Simple storage,incessant and insistent reminders politly pushing patient compliance. The only shortcomming is,perhaps,the lack of a carrying case, travel sleeve, case, or bag. It could be sold as an system acessory. You may not even need an engineer; just a protective border,something to assure that the chambers' doors wont open in a purse, or get snagged on a suit-pocket's lining spilling out the day's contents on the floor ( Which,if not completely recovered, could create a potetially dangerous situation for children and pets.)

Until my advice is taken, I'll stick with a heavy-duty rubber band, large enough to be expanded vertically over the length of the case over all the all-ready-checked, closed doors. Just to be extra safe and extra sheek,I place the bag in a snack- or sandswich-sized plastic bag, along with a slip of paper with my doctor's and my phone number to let us know if its been found.

To summarize: Once in place, The Center give you the confidence to think less about your medications and more about life.
