MEDICATION & RESEARCH CONNECTING THE DOTS


How is Meds On Time building a smarter pathway to independence through digital medication support?


In today’s evolving health and social care landscape, one truth remains constant: supporting people to live independently for longer is not only a moral imperative but a practical necessity. As care services face rising demand, staffing challenges, and increasing costs, the ability to deliver safe, scalable, and person- centred support has never been more critical.


This is where medication – so oſten a silent risk factor in health deterioration – becomes a powerful focal point for prevention, empowerment, and innovation.


At Meds on Time, we’re bringing together the UK’s most effective and evidence-based Digital Medication Adherence Technologies to create a joined-up ecosystem that supports people along every stage of the care journey under the Meds on Time digital medication adherence toolkit (D-MAT). From early intervention to long-term care, we believe medication adherence technology can help people take control of their health, improving health and personal outcomes.


BUILDING FAMILIARITY EARLY: INTRODUCING TECHNOLOGY BEFORE CRISIS HITS


Too oſten, digital tools are introduced only when people are already in crisis or decline. At Meds On Time, we advocate for a different approach: embedding digital medication support early in the care pathway, even before formal services are in place.


By doing so, we help individuals become comfortable using friendly, unobtrusive technologies that build confidence medication adherence within their daily routines. Whether it’s a smart blister pack, an automated dispenser, or a simple app- based reminder, these tools are designed to be intuitive and respectful – not overwhelming.


Over time, this early introduction pays dividends. People who are used to managing their medication digitally are better equipped to maintain independence, engage with carers and care services when needed, and transition between levels of support without losing autonomy.


EMPOWERING SUPPORTERS, ENHANCING SAFEGUARDING


Medication is oſten a shared concern. Family members, carers, pharmacists, and clinicians all play a role in ensuring someone gets the right support at the right time.


All of the tools within the Meds On Time D-MAT informs the supporter network when things do go as planned ensuring that nudge is provided only when it’s needed. With real-time adherence data, missed dose alerts, and accessible dashboards, supporters can be informed and involved–without being intrusive. This creates a proactive layer of safeguarding: people get the space to manage independently, but help is quickly mobilised when things go wrong.


It’s not just about monitoring – it’s about enabling early intervention, reducing hospital admissions, and preventing avoidable deterioration.

No two people have the same needs – and those needs change over time. That’s why Meds On Time curates a wide range of D-MAT tools to meet people where they are: • Prevention and early support: Simple reminder tools like Pillpal that provide nudges across a variety of platforms including WhatsApp and Ai Calls. Medper is a smart medication box that accommodates original packaging reducing the risk of medication errors and frees up time sorting medication out into pill dispensers

• Versatile support needs: Sophisticated medication dispensing service with personal medicine dispensing robots like Evondos enabling remote care capabilities with optional camera functionality.


Our role is to make these tools accessible, join up the thinking and support collaboration between the suppliers, so that Integrated Care Systems (ICSs), local authorities, care providers, and families can build bespoke digital pathways that flex as needs evolve.


A PLATFORM FOR INDEPENDENCE, NOT SURVEILLANCE


At its core, Meds On Time is about dignity, not dependency. We believe the future of care lies in giving people the tools to help themselves – and the confidence to know support is
