Use this page when support workers need to record that an agreed medication prompt occurred, or that a refusal, delay, missed prompt, or uncertainty was escalated according to provider process.
Start here
A medication prompt record template for Australian home care and disability support teams documenting prompts, refusal, delay, uncertainty, and escalation.
What to capture
Record the date, time, type of prompt, what the client did after the prompt, any refusal or issue, who was notified, and where the record was stored.
Important boundary
Medication support is sensitive. Workers should only act within their role, training, provider policy, and the person's support plan. The template does not provide clinical or medication advice.

Common questions
Can this template decide what to do after a missed dose?
No. Workers should follow the provider's escalation process immediately where a dose is missed, refused, dropped, delayed, or uncertain.
