Family Medicine Chart

Looking after Mum or Dad with a brother, sister or carer? Put their medicines in one weekly chart, tick each dose as it's given and see who gave it, print a copy for the fridge, and (with Health Pro) share the same chart with the family. It's encrypted on your device; each family member opens it with their own key, and we can't read it.

Add a medicine (as prescribed)
Days:(none ticked = every day)

Week of 09/11

0 of 0 doses given

Add the medicines above. The chart fills in by time of day.

Only record what the doctor prescribed. If a dose is missed, follow the leaflet or ask a pharmacist; don't double up unless told to.

Share with family (Health Pro)

Brothers, sisters and carers see the same chart on their phones and tick doses as they give them. The chart is encrypted on your device; each person opens it with their own key, and we can't read it.

Sync across your devices (end-to-end encrypted, Health Pro)

Your data is encrypted on this device with a key made from your passphrase before anything is sent. We store only the encrypted copy and can't read it: not your results, names or medicines. How it works

How to make a medicine chart for a parent

Quick answer: To make a medicine chart for a parent, add each medicine as prescribed, tick doses as they're given, print the week and share it with family (optional).

  1. Add each medicine as prescribed. Copy the name and strength from the box or the prescription, how much to give, the times and the days (leave the days empty for every day).
  2. Tick doses as they're given. Add your name once; each tick shows who gave the dose and when. Untick a mistake.
  3. Print the week. Press Print this week for a paper chart with boxes to tick, for the fridge or the carer's folder.
  4. Share it with family (optional). Set up encrypted sync, press Share with family and send the link to one person. They sign in with their own email and set their own passphrase.

Why a chart helps

When several people help, doses get missed or given twice. A medication administration record (MAR), as care homes call it, shows at a glance what's due and what's been given. Keep the chart up to date when a prescription changes, and ask the pharmacist about anything unclear.

How sharing stays private

The chart is encrypted with its own key before it leaves your phone. That key is locked separately for each family member with their own key pair, and the invite link carries its secret after the #, which browsers never send to a server. When you remove someone, the chart gets a new key that only the others receive.

Safety

Record only what the doctor prescribed. This chart doesn't check doses or interactions. If a dose is missed, read the leaflet or ask a pharmacist, and don't give a double dose unless told to. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.

Frequently asked questions

Is it free?

Making, ticking and printing the chart on one device is free. Sharing it with family needs Health Pro, which also syncs your other health tools between your devices.

Can you see the chart?

No. With sharing on, we store only an encrypted copy and the keys locked for each member; we see which accounts share a chart, not what's in it. Without sharing, the chart stays in your browser.

What does a family member need?

The link, an email address to sign in with, and their own passphrase. They don't need Health Pro to join.

What if someone shouldn't see it any more?

Remove them under Share with family. The chart gets a new key, so they can't see any changes from then on. (They may still have a copy of what they saw before.)

Does it remind us when a dose is due?

Use the Medicine Reminder for alerts on each phone; this chart is the shared record of what's been given.
