Grove Manor Estates offers its residents, when necessary, the following types of medication
services:


Self-Administered Medication Management (SAMM)
This program is appropriate for residents who are capable of taking their own medications, but require reminders and some supervision from a Resident Assistant (RA). The RA is responsible for observing the residents as they take their medications or noting when a resident does not comply and refuses their medications. These actions are documented in writing. 



Limited Medication Administration (LMA)
This program is required for residents who are not capable of taking their own medications without the assistance of a nurse. A licensed nurse administers the resident's medications  according to the doctor's orders, re-orders when the supply is low, monitors any adverse reactions and communicates any concerns to the doctor and family. Grove Manor Estates strictly adheres to the regulations of the State of Massachusetts for the administration of medications by licensed nurses to its residents. Grove Manor Estates provides licensed nursing services to residents requiring LMA during the hours of 8:00 am to 10:00 pm, seven days a week.

On Call Staff
In addition, a licensed nurse is also on-call between the hours of 10:00 pm and 8:00 am to administer any resident medication on an as needed basis.
