What to do when it’s time for the Patient to take Medications
Before your e-pill MedTime SAFE alarm is turned on, the inside pill tray will turn
clockwise (one section) making the next set of medications available to the patient.
When the alarm is heard and/or the blinking light is turned on, pick up the e-pill
MedTime SAFE with one hand, turn it upside down and the pills will fall from the
dispenser chute into your other hand.
For large medications you may have to shake the e-pill
MedTime SAFE to make sure all medicines come out from the
dispensing chute.
Once the patient has taken his/her medication, the device should be turned “right side up”
and placed back on a table or kitchen counter.
