Nurses and Care Givers

The ability to manage medications is a more important index of the need for admission to a nursing home than even the patient's clinical status.

When taking care of someone, the management of medicines often becomes a point of contention. "Are you sure you took your medicine?" It is important and necessary that medications be taken on schedule, but very difficult to monitor.

The ZoltanCAP® always indicates the time-of-day, and day-of-week that a medicine bottle was last opened.

With the ZoltanCAP® the caregiver can unobstructively and without challenging the patient, observe when the medication was last taken.

If on Monday morning at 10 AM the ZoltanCAP® indicates that it had been removed last on Sunday at 9:32 PM, we know that no medicine could have been taken today. This information, gathered over a short period of days, is sufficient to separate those who are able to manage their medication, from those who require assistance and prompting.
