Medication & Family Scheduling and Reminders

Forgot to remind your mom to take her medication? Or did your spouse miss their insulin reminder? Meanwhile, you’re scrambling to remember soccer practice pickup, after-school tutoring, and who needs to be where and when.

You’re not alone. 50% of families struggle with medication adherence, and 73% of parents report feeling overwhelmed by family scheduling.

Why Families Choose GoReminders Over Alternatives

Most families try to solve this with individual medication reminder apps, or setting basic phone alarms. Here’s why that’s not working:

Separate accounts for each family member = total confusion
No coordination between family schedules and medication times
Limited customization – generic messages that don’t fit your family’s needs
Most apps force you to choose: medication reminders OR family scheduling. Not both.

Why GoReminders Works Well: Automated Medication Reminders + Family Scheduling

Recurring schedules – daily insulin, weekly sports, monthly doctor visits
Caregiver reminders – perfect for elderly parents and children
Custom messaging – “Take your insulin before dinner” not generic “Take medication”
Automated reminders – you enter the appointment and then GoReminders automatically reminds your family member or friend without you having to go in and trigger the reminder.

Praise for GoReminders

I tried another system, but there were too many goof-ups so I went back to pen and paper. Until I foundGoReminders! I love how simple it is on my iPad, and I do a week’s worth of scheduling in the time it took me for one client! Now I can focus on making my clients beautiful!
