Encouraging parents and children to assign responsibility for medication adherence related tasks will help families from just assuming that medication is taken. Here is one way to separate common responsibilities.

 

 

 

Child Responsibilities

 

  1. Help fill the pill box
  2. Taking the pills

 

Parent Responsibilities

 

  1. Calling for refills
  2. Fill the pill box
  3. Watching the child take the medication
  4. Confirming he or she took the medication
