# Family medicine cabinet: one shared medicine tracker for everyone

When a child has a fever at 2 a.m., the question is always the same: do we have anything for this, and where is it? A family medicine cabinet that everyone can check answers it in seconds.

## What a shared cabinet needs

1. One list everyone can open, on their own phone.
2. A clear idea of who can only look and who can also change things.
3. Photos, so a grandparent or a babysitter recognises the box.

## In short

Because the medication list is shared, everyone sees the same medicine tracker. A grandparent, a parent or a carer can check what is at home, and the photo of each box makes it easy to recognise.
