Gesture & etiquette
Present the medication with both hands; place a glass of water within easy reach; maintain eye contact; watch to confirm each pill is swallowed without rushing; keep a calm, matter-of-fact tone throughout.
State the medication count upfront ('3種類') so the person can mentally prepare — this reduces surprise at multiple pills and builds transparency; present medications as a normal part of the daily routine rather than using any alarming language.
