Helping an aging parent in Burnaby with their medications, from a distance or alongside a busy life, is hard. Carebridge runs a senior medication program for Burnaby families: daily dispense, home visits, the Medication Administration Program, witnessed doses, and supervised insulin and injection support at home.
You cannot be there for every dose, and you should not have to be. Carebridge sets up and runs your parent's medications so nothing is missed. A pharmacist reviews everything they take, organizes it into daily dispense or blister packs, and, where it helps, our team visits at home across Burnaby. We can witness doses, confirm each one was taken, and provide supervised insulin and injection support for seniors who cannot inject on their own.
For families across Metrotown, Brentwood, Edmonds, Lougheed and Burnaby Heights, that means one phone number and one less thing to worry about. We coordinate with your parent's doctor, keep records, and deliver medication free. You are always free to use any pharmacy you choose.
| Service | What it is | Best for | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily dispense | One safe day of medication at a time | Preventing missed or double doses | Daily dispensing fee, often PharmaCare covered |
| Medication Administration Program (MAP) | The full routine set up and managed | Complex regimens, many medications | Ask a pharmacist |
| Home visits | A team member visits to deliver, set up, and check | Mobility limits or living alone | One visit a day at no cost; second for a small fee |
| Witnessed doses | Confirmation each dose was actually taken | Memory, confusion, or safety | Ask a pharmacist |
| Insulin and injection support | Supervised, witnessed injection help at home | Seniors who cannot self-inject | Coordinated with the prescriber |
