Managing a parent’s medication is one of the most stressful tasks a family carer takes on. A morning dose missed, a medicine that ran out before the next prescription arrives, a new side effect that gets brushed off as “just getting older.” Research consistently shows that medication problems are one of the leading causes of confusion, falls, and hospital readmission in older people. Most of these problems are preventable, and almost all of them are easier to catch when there is a clear written record.

This tracker is designed for families, not for professional carers. You do not need any clinical training to use it. It does three things well: it gives you a single up-to-date list of every medicine to show GPs and hospital staff, it helps you remember whether a dose was given each day of the week, and it captures any side effects or changes so you have something concrete to discuss at the next medication review.

What is included:

• A clean medication list page covering every medicine, dose, schedule, what it is for, and when it was started, with space for allergies and bad reactions, GP surgery details, and pharmacy details
• A weekly tick chart covering up to 12 medicines across 7 days, with simple codes for given, refused, missed, late, given by a carer, or ran out
• A medication changes log to track when medicines are started, stopped, or have their dose changed
• A side effects log to track anything unusual you notice and what you did about it
• A reference list of side effects worth a phone call to the GP or pharmacy, including dementia-specific signs like new confusion, unsteadiness, and “stopped behaving like themselves”
• A clear orientation note explaining the difference between a family tracker and a professional MAR chart so you know exactly what this is and is not
