At Angelic Home Care Solutions, our Certified Medication Technicians (CMTs) provide skilled and compassionate medication support to seniors and children with disabilities. Each CMT is licensed in Maryland, thoroughly background-checked, and trained to follow the highest standards of care.

What Does a Certified Medication Technician Do?
A Certified Medication Technician (CMT) is a skilled professional with specialized training to support safe medication use at home. While a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) focuses on daily living activities and personal care, a CMT's expertise lies in medication oversight, ensuring your loved one's treatments are managed accurately and consistently.
The key responsibilities of our CMTs include:
- Administering Oral Medications: Our CMTs are trained to administer prescribed oral medications with precision, following the correct dosage and schedule.
- Applying Topical Treatments: They can safely apply creams, ointments, and other topical treatments as directed by a physician.
- Assisting with Prescribed Therapies: CMTs can help with certain prescribed therapies and treatments that fall within their scope of practice.
- Monitoring Side Effects: They vigilantly monitor for any adverse reactions or side effects and communicate these concerns to the family and healthcare team.
- Medication Documentation: All administered medications are carefully documented to maintain an accurate health record.
Managing a complex medication schedule can be challenging, and a missed or incorrect dose can significantly affect your loved one’s health. Our CMTs provide a crucial layer of support to ensure your loved one's medication routine is safe and reliable.
With our CMT services, you gain:
- Timely Medication Reminders & Administration: Our CMTs ensure every dose is taken on time, every time, reducing the risk of errors.
- Careful Documentation: We maintain precise records of all medications given, which can be shared with doctors during appointments.
- Proactive Health Monitoring: Our professionals monitor for changes in your loved one's condition and can help identify potential issues before they become serious.
- Reduced Risk of Hospital Readmissions: By ensuring medications are taken correctly, our services help manage chronic conditions and support overall wellness, which can help prevent unnecessary hospital visits.
With Angelic Home Care Solutions, your family gains peace of mind knowing every dose is handled with professional care and attention.
Effective care is a team effort. Our CMTs work closely with your loved one’s healthcare team to provide seamless, integrated care. This collaboration ensures that your care plan is followed precisely and that all medical professionals are kept up to date on your loved one’s condition.
Our CMTs coordinate care by:
- Communicating Changes: They act as a vital link between the family and the healthcare team, reporting any changes in a client’s condition or side effects from medication.
- Supporting Telehealth Appointments: Our CMTs can assist with virtual appointments, ensuring your loved one is prepared and can communicate effectively with their doctor.
- Ensuring Plan Adherence: They diligently follow the prescribed care plan, helping to ensure the highest standard of care is delivered at home.
