At FamilyWorks, you will experience kind, compassionate, thorough medication management services.  These services are designed to  help clients optimize the use of their medications and improve health outcomes. Ultimately, medication management aims to ensure clients take the right medication, at the right dose, at the right time, and for the right reason. 

Medication management services include:

• Medication Review:. A thorough assessment of all medications, including prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal remedies, to identify potential problems like drug interactions, inappropriate dosages, or unnecessary medications. 
• Medication Regimen Development:.Based on the medication review, a personalized plan is created, which may include a medication schedule, instructions on how to take medications, and strategies for managing potential side effects. 
• Client Education:. Clients are provided with clear and concise information about their medications, including their purpose, dosage, frequency, potential side effects, and how to store them safely. 
• Monitoring and Follow-up:. Regular monitoring of a client's response to medication is crucial. This may involve tracking symptoms, checking for side effects, and adjusting the medication regimen as needed to ensure optimal therapeutic outcomes. 
• Communication with Healthcare Providers:. Medication management services often involve communication with the client's primary care physician, therapist, case managers or other healthcare providers to ensure everyone is on the same page regarding the client's plan of care.

Targeted Case Management is a valuable service that helps provide additional support to clients and their family as well as help them access needed community resources.  Targeted Case Management goals are specific to the individual client.  Essentially, case management is putting feet to therapy.  Case managers help remove the various barriers that make utilizing what is learned in therapy difficult in real life.  By removing these barriers and reducing stress within the client's environment, the case manager, helps the client and their family create and environment that is conducive to incorporating what is learned in therapy to help the individual become the healthiest, happiness, and most successful individual possible.
