Canada-based digital-first pharmacy platform Mednow and private home healthcare services provider Integracare have teamed up to enhance home healthcare for ageing senior citizens.
lntegracare provides a wide range of private nursing care and personal support services for individuals in their homes, hospitals, retirement residences and long-term care facilities.
The company has more than three decades of experience in delivering premium home care services, ranging from dementia and palliative care to physiotherapy and wound care.
Its partnership with Mednow is said to combine high-quality in-home care with advanced digital pharmacy services.
Together, Mednow and Integracare will support ageing seniors at home, helping them maintain independence, manage complex medical needs, and enjoy a better quality of life.
Mednow CEO David Marantz said: “Medications play a pivotal role in ageing well at home, yet their complexity and the need to coordinate with many providers can often lead to challenges such as missed doses, dangerous interactions, and frustration for patients, families, and caregivers.
“Through this partnership with Integracare, we are delivering technology and services that help caregivers and clients manage these challenges efficiently.”
Mednow clinical innovations vice president Maya Hamam said: “Supporting seniors at home is about more than just medication, it’s about creating a comprehensive, seamless care experience.
“Our expert pharmacists and user-friendly technology will help Integracare manage medications and care in a way that’s simple, effective, and efficient.”
According to Integracare, the demand for personalised home healthcare continues to increase with Canada’s ageing population.
Under the partnership, Mednow and Integracare will combine their expertise to provide caregivers and clients with advanced solutions for medication management and home care.
Integracare clients will benefit from Mednow’s digital pharmacy platform which provides personalised reminders and refill management to ensure adherence with prescriptions.
The platform will ensure consultation with certified pharmacists to identify potential drug interactions and customised treatments for better outcomes.
It also enables easy integration of home-based doctor visits and healthcare services, including prescription renewals, injections, and general consultations.
Also, the platform will allow rapid, reliable, and convenient delivery of medications and healthcare products directly to clients’ homes.
Integracare CEO Lee Grunberg said: “Our mission has always been to deliver the highest quality care for our clients while supporting the invaluable work of our caregivers.
“By partnering with Mednow, we’re able to enhance our ability to meet the needs of our clients and provide innovative tools for our caregivers and care managers, enabling them to deliver the best possible care for our clients.”
