What People Are Saying!

• Beverly Kirkhart - cancer survivor, author of “My Healing Companion” and co-author of “Chicken Soup for the Surviving Soul”
“IdentiMed is brilliant. Every person dealing with multiple medicines can benefit from this tool. IdentiMed takes the stress out of which medicine to take and when, allowing a patient to focus on living.”

• Keith Orsini - Director, American RSDHope, National Organization for patients suffering from Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy - www.RSDHope.org
"If you take more than 4 medications a day, check IdentiMed out. It will enable you and your loved ones to organize your pills in a much more concise and organized fashion; for you, them, your doctor, EMT's etc. I showed mine to my Doctor and he loved it! My family knows I keep it in my truck with me
wherever I go. We can't expect our loved ones to remember what we take for medications, especially the dosage, so this is a wonderful product. I really like the binder version as I can keep all my medical records in one place. I highly recommend this product. It is one of those things that you can use each time you visit the Doctor, and it may even save your life one day."

• Dr. Joe Sullivan, Providence Hospital
“IdentiMed will make Outpatient and ER visits more efficient. It should be the standard of care.”

• Dr. Patricia Archbold, Gerontologist
“I think many older persons and family caregivers could benefit from IdentiMed, the visual guide.”

• Ms. Debby Parrish – RPH, MPA, HA – HIV Clinical Program Pharmacist
“I create with each client starts/changes meds and a personalized med sheet …I give it the thumbs up.”

• Ms. Maria Kosmetatos, RN, NP HIV Specialist
"IdentiMed is the perfect teaching tool for helping patients and their caregivers manage medications in the complicated maze of health care system from clinic to specialist to ER to hospital."

• Ms. Rosemary, NW Cancer Specialist, Oncology Nurse
“…So many times, patients and families have asked us (the medical system) to provide them with a means to keep track of their medications. Our comment is: " You usually come up with a better system than we can provide" and now with this program we can offer them a well organized, visual means to keep track of medications, as well as an easy system to make changes in drug or dosing. I believe that this would be a great product to offer to our patients.”

• Susan Pemberton, RN Home Health Administrator Portland, Oregon
"Identimed is an easy to use system for care givers, family members, patients with memory impairment or those on complicated medication regimens. It is a simple system to understand and teach. I especially like the immediate visual identification of the sample pill. It is compact and
moveable.It is easy to use with low literacy patients and very efficient. It
is an affordable option that will greatly reduce medication errors."

• Ann Riener, RN, MN, OCN
Program Director, Cancer Services Director, Outreach and Ed. OHSU Cancer Institute -
“People with chronic illnesses, such as cancer, often have multiple medications that need to be precisely taken. IdentiMed is a great product that assists patients and caregivers to maintain medication schedules. It can also be helpful in communication between patients, their caregivers and healthcare professionals. Being able to see and point to the medication instead of having to pronounce often unpronounceable names is a real help.”

• Anita Larmi, RN BSN Investigator/Advisor - Oregon State Board of Nursing
Identimed is a valuable tool in the growing Community Care based environment. The organized, visual presentation assists professional providers and caregivers to provide accurate medication management and delivery to the patient.

• Paul Irrabino, Aging Services – Case Manager
“Caregivers have enough on their plate. IdentiMed helps keep critical health
information organized. The patient, the caregiver, and the health care provider are all winners with IdentiMed.”

• Kate Langley-Powell, Family Caregiver
“IdentiMed, was an ideal solution to my grandfather’s med confusion. He is newly diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, has chronic liver and heart issues, and loves to take random vitamins. When he moved out here he was taking 37 or 38 DIFFERENT medications. His doctor is in love with his Identimed notebook. She can point to each pill and ask him about when he takes it and how it affects him and get a coherent response. He takes it to his specialist appointments so all of his providers can clearly tell what medications he’s already on. He just had cataract surgery and his doctor had him cut the empty boxes from his eye drops to fit into the slots. This allowed his PCP to promptly diagnose thrush when he developed it as a side effect from one of his antibiotic eye drops. Thank you from my entire family for this simple and useful product. I wish it had been around 2 years ago when we were dealing with my father-in-law with similar health problems!!”
