Medicines check-ins for community pharmacy
careplans ai is an AI voice companion that calls your regular clients between visits. It asks how their medicines are going, notices missed doses, side effects and running low, and gives your pharmacist a short list of people to follow up, with the right service attached.
The problem
Clients skip doses, stop because of side effects, or run out and wait. With longer supply periods, the gap between visits is wider and the pharmacy hears about it later.

Hello Margaret, it is the AI assistant calling from Banksia Pharmacy for your monthly medicines check-in. You can stop these calls or ask to speak with the pharmacist at any time. Is now a good time?
Yes dear, go ahead.
How are you going with your tablets this month?
I keep forgetting the evening one. There are so many now.
That is really common. Have you noticed anything new since you started the blood pressure tablet?
I get dizzy when I stand up. And I only have a few days left of the heart one.
Thank you. I will let the pharmacist know about the dizziness today, and ask them to have your heart tablets ready. Would you like them to call you about an easier way to organise your tablets?
Oh yes, that would be good.
People always know they are talking to AI. Every call opens by saying so and names your pharmacy. The companion never gives medical advice or changes a dose. Anything clinical goes to your pharmacist.
