Ever had a patient so determined to avoid their meds they start hiding them in the wildest places? Just the other day, I found a pill bottle in a cereal box… It’s like a game of hide-and-seek that no one wants to play, but you can’t help but laugh at the creativity.
But i’ve found meds stashed in the strangest places too! It’s like they’re trying to win an Olympic event in hiding. Just this week, a patient asked if we could turn their pill routine into a scavenger hunt — maybe we should start giving out trophies! Ever consider using humor to coax them into compliance?
It’s like a scavenger hunt, but instead of treasure, we find pill bottles in the oddest places! I had a patient once package their meds in a lunchbox to avoid taking them. Ever consider suggesting a med reminder app instead?
It’s wild how creative patients can get! I once had someone hide their pills under a loose floorboard; just a little surprise when cleaning! Sometimes, bringing in family to help with reminders works better than any app.
