Can a medication reminder app improve sticking to treatment?
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a mobile app that reminds you to take your medicine can help people who have both chronic health conditions and memory problems stick to their treatment plan. A nurse leader will help guide the program, and you or a caregiver will use the app on a smartphone.
