Mom's a Genius: Woman invents Pill Pouch to help prevent medication errors and confusion

(WXYZ) - It is still hard for Kathy Sitek to believe her simple idea is now being manufactured at a manufacturing facility in Troy. It’s called the Pill Pouch and the story of its origin is one many people can relate to. She was caring for her elderly mother.

“She was taking multiple meds and she was getting confused and we were having a conflict with it,” said Sitek. “And my mom, was actually 90, she was able to drive the car everywhere but when it came to her meds, she was confused.”

So Sitek came up with an idea. She made a piece of cardboard into an organizational tool for her mother. She taped a sample pill of each of her medications, and next to it she wrote all the necessary information for taking the pill; the dosage, when to take them, with or without food, etc.

“She would use it to set up her pill box, or if we went to the doctor, we took that with us.” Sitek said. “And it helped our relationship because she was able to take her meds and things ran much smother.”

Sitek knew she was onto something. So to help others she, and her husband, came up with the Pill Pouch. (watch video player above to see the product)

“It’s a medication management tool that helps you visually recognize what your taking as well as written information.” Sitek explain.

The goals include making more familiar and comfortable with what they are taking, so when pills are in their pill box, the person knows what they are and what they are for.

Another goal is to improve communication with your doctors.

“I have heard of people who take it in and the nurse just puts it right on the copy machine, copy it, and they are like, ‘OK, done. We have your [medication].”

The business is a family affair. Sitek's son and daughter left their jobs to work alongside her to build the company. With every Pill Pouch sold, comes a handwritten note from Sitek. So far, they've sold over 13 thousand Pill Pouches. They cost $15 and can be purchased on her website www.pillpouch.net and at Binson's Home Health Care.

The family is currently working with Henry Ford Hospital on a pilot program trying out the patented Pill Pouch with in-home patients.

This small product is making a big impact while continuing the legacy of a woman named Stella.

“Tells was a feisty lady,” Sitek recalled. “And so, I am really proud I could do this for her.”

What’s being done to fight elderly abuse

Connecticut Better Business Bureau has joined the state’s battle against elderly abuse, as a member of the coordinating council of the Coalition for Elder Justice in Connecticut.
“Financial victimization is abuse,” according to Connecticut Better Business Bureau Executive Communications Director, Howard Schwartz. “In many cases, elderly victims are unsure of who to contact for help. BBB’s role is to educate the community about scam prevention, help resolve problems for consumers who are victims of unethical marketplace practices and guide consumers to the appropriate agencies as required.”
Older people are prime targets for virtually every sort of scam, including financial fraud, identity theft and dishonest business practices. They are commonly victims of additional scams involving medical care coverage, Medicare and Medicaid fraud, and the “Grandparent Scam.”
Last week, the Department of Consumer Protection, Department on Aging and AARP of Connecticut warned Connecticut residents about criminals who cheated three elderly victims out of almost $200,000 in one town alone, by claiming to be the victim’s child or grandchild or by someone claiming to have that loved one in jail.
This scam has become all too commonplace. The caller typically impersonates a resident, lawyer or police officer, and then asks the target to send cash to a specific location or make a wire transfer into a bank account. In these cases, the grandchild or other close relative is supposedly in distress, and needing the target’s help.
The Coalition is an initiative of the State Department on Aging, as part of its Elder Rights and Elder Abuse initiatives. It is made up of representatives from both public and private entities – a variety of state government departments, law enforcement, and community and advocacy groups.
The Coalition mission statement is “To communicate and collaborate with Public and Private Stakeholders that are addressing elder justice issues in Connecticut in order to prevent elder abuse and protect the rights and promote independence, security and well-being of vulnerable elders.”
Its goal is to use members’ resources to help identify, stop and prevent elderly abuse. The Coalition is in the process of creating a comprehensive list of government and other community contacts, so victims and caregivers will know how to reach the appropriate entity for a given problem.
Connecticut Better Business Bureau was appointed to the Coalition’s coordinating council this fall, to share its expertise and offer a list of the group’s members and their contact information for victims and caregivers.
The list is posted on the Connecticut BBB website in the “Get Consumer Help” section, under “Coalition for Elder Justice Resources.”
