Medication Safety
Make sure you and or your family ask questions about your medications. If you have any concerns about your medications, ask your nurse about them. Make sure to tell your nurse if you think you are about to receive the wrong medication or if something does not seem right.
However, if they are unable to transport a resident in their vehicle due to wheelchair accessibility, arrangements can be made to use the village’s mini-bus or to transport the resident by ambulance, as applicable and appropriate.
The family should request the use of the minibus, through the village office, well in advance of the appointment. It is the family’s responsibility to provide a qualified driver. It is imperative that a family member accompany the resident to the appointment. Staff members are unable to accompany residents to appointments. |
