MINNEAPOLIS, MN – May 5, 2025 — Two leading Twin Cities home care agencies, CareAparent and Right at Home (Bloomington), have launched a new In-Home Medication Assistance Service, powered by the Ōmcare Home Health Hub®, to help aging adults stay healthier and live independently at home longer.

Medication mismanagement is the leading cause of hospitalization among older adults and a major contributor to loss of independence. With 80% of adults aged 65+ managing multiple prescriptions daily, timely and accurate adherence is essential.

Today, the responsibility of managing complicated medication routines often rests on family caregivers—most often an adult daughter or son. This role can require juggling multiple pharmacy visits, organizing pill boxes, tracking paper schedules, and providing daily oversight. These time-consuming and manual processes can erode the quality of the parent/child relationship and can lead to errors, often resulting in missed doses, confusion, and avoidable medical emergencies.

The new service is a comprehensive, turnkey solution designed to reduce medication errors and hospitalizations by supporting patients where they need it most—at home. It includes:

  • Home-delivered, pouched medications from a national pharmacy
  • Medication loading by trained home care professionals into the Ōmcare Home Health Hub®
  • Automated alerts and dispensing when it’s time to take medications
  • Verification of medication intake and real-time adherence tracking
  • Easy one-touch video calls with family and caregivers

“This is exactly the kind of innovation we need in home care,” said Jody Hahn, CEO of CareAparent. “Medication adherence is one of the most critical components of healthy aging. The combination of human care and digital precision offers our clients greater peace of mind.”

“We’re proud to bring this transformative service to our clients and our community,” said Paul Blom, Co-Owner & CEO of Right at Home (Bloomington). “It aligns with our mission to Improve the Quality of Life for Those We Serve. Ōmcare will help us further empower individuals to age with dignity and independence, and it adds a new layer of safety and support.”

“At Ōmcare, our mission is to Change the way the world cares® for our aging population,” said Lisa Lavin, Founder and CEO of Ōmcare. “Everyone deserves the opportunity to live a vibrant, independent life—surrounded by connection, supported by care. We designed the Ōmcare platform to be a simple hub for health, connection, and wellbeing—empowering people to thrive in the place they call home.”

This groundbreaking service is now available to clients of CareAparent and Right at Home in the Twin Cities. Contact Ōmcare at 952-456-6848 or omcare.com/homecare to learn more.
