I am currently solving that problem by putting the reminder on both Echos. Doesn't help though if she happens to go out to get the mail when the reminders go off, but that's a bridge I haven't figured out yet.

The best way might be if Amazon would allow the use of Groups for reminders and alarms so that you could create a Group, for example Mom's Meds, and assign the appropriate Echo devices to the Mom's Meds group, then set the Mom's Meds group as the focus of that particular alarm/reminder. For example,
"Alexa, remind Mom to take [specific] meds at [time] on Mom's Meds group." Then when the reminder was voiced it would be voiced over all the Echo devices assigned to the Mom's Meds group, and only those specific Echo devices.
