Introduction
Managing the health of elderly family members from overseas is a challenge many Filipinos face today. With Yehro Philippines’ Medication Management Service, you can ensure that your loved ones are taking their medications correctly and on time, no matter where you are. Specially designed for Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), the service provides a professional oversight mechanism that handles everything from refilling prescriptions to ensuring timely administration of medication. Our solution addresses typical concerns such as missed doses and incorrect medication management that could potentially compromise the health of your relatives back home.
Common Problems Faced by OFWs When Managing Medications
OFWs often find themselves stressed and worried about how their elderly relatives are managing their medications in their absence. Here are some common challenges:
- Communication Barriers: Many elderly people living in regions like Mindanao or Visayas may not speak English fluently. Therefore, when a doctor prescribes new medication, understanding dosage and frequency can become a problem.
- Time Zone Differences: Coordinating medication schedules is complicated when living in different time zones. For example, if your parent needs to take a pill at 8 AM Philippine time, it might be difficult to coordinate a reminder if you live halfway across the world.
- Trust Issues: There can always be an underlying fear of mishandling medication either by inexperienced caregivers or the elderly person themselves, which can cause reluctance to trust local resources.
- Emergency Readiness: When health issues arise suddenly, OFWs cannot be immediately physically present to handle an emergency, which might require specific medications to prevent complications.
- Unreliable Local Support: Some Filipinos rely on neighbors or distant relatives to help out but find this method inconsistent due to their unpredictability in being able to assist all the time.
- Lack of Awareness: There may be little understanding or awareness about the health conditions that require medication, leading relatives to minimize the importance of timely intakes.
- Prescription Overlook: Sometimes pharmacies may run out of a certain medication, and elderly relatives might not know how to address the shortage, leaving OFWs helpless from afar.
- Record Keeping: Medical records and prescriptions are often not kept updated or organized, creating confusion for both the elderly and their distant relatives.
- Complex Drug Interactions: The lack of awareness of potential drug interactions can lead to complications if certain medications are mistakenly combined without the guidance of a healthcare professional. For instance, pharmacies in Luzon may have incompatible medications due to local availability issues.
- Inadequate Local Healthcare Services: Sometimes, the local healthcare system in regions like Mindanao may not be as robust, making it difficult to find reliable assistance for medication management.
