A simple handoff

Help them put the schedule where they already look.

  1. 01

    Build it together

    Enter the medication, prescription directions, dose times, and duration. The schedule is for organization—not a change to their care plan.

  2. 02

    Send one link

    Your family member can review the schedule without creating an account. Anyone with the complete link can view it.

  3. 03

    Add it to their calendar

    One calendar file includes every dose time. If they want stronger alerts, they can choose to use OnTimer on their own iPhone.

Questions caregivers ask

How do I set up a medication schedule for a parent?

Enter the medication directions and dose times already prescribed, review the schedule together, then send one link to the intended person. Your parent or family member can add the resulting calendar file to their own calendar without creating an account.

Does this tool decide medication doses or times?

No. It organizes the medication, directions, dose times, and duration you enter. Confirm those details against the prescription or with the healthcare provider before sharing or using the schedule.

What happens to the schedule information?

The tool runs in the browser. Schedule details are placed after the # in the link and are not included in the page request to OnTimer. Anyone with the complete link can read the schedule, so share it only with the intended person.
