Has Anyone Tried Pill Pack

Has anyone ever tries pill pack. I saw an ad for the pharmacy and loves the convenience that it would offer. All meds in prepackaged labeled packs on a roll. It tells the day time and all the meds in the pack. No more pill caddies that never stay closed.

We have used them for the past year. Brilliant as it's making sure she doesn't miss or double dose. Which is what she was doing. However we have caregivers come in here times a day and they supervise this as well

I tried it for my parents when they were still at home. Mom, who we didn't realize had had a TIA, couldn't make the early adjustment to some blister packs and some bottles. This is an issue when you first start and your scripts don't all refill at the same time. Otherwise, their program is fantastic.

If your Dad is stage 5, I definitely feel his meds should be managed, but I am not a Dr. I forget, are you caring for your Dad!
