Compare Electronic MAR (eMAR) vs. oneMAR

eMAR is designed to minimize or completely eradicate discrepancies and mistakes in your MAR Sheets, eliminating issues such as unreadable handwriting or absent signatures. With real-time medication notifications, you can rest assured that nothing will be overlooked, significantly cutting down the amount of time spent on audits and verifying MAR sheets. The cost of our service encompasses all necessary training and refresher courses to ensure you are fully equipped. This electronic MAR system functions as a portable medication administration record, ensuring that medications are administered accurately and consistently. Available as an application for both tablets and Android devices, it is ideally suited for residential and supported living settings where compliance and safety are critical. eMAR is beneficial for care facilities that cater to the elderly, those with mental health issues, autism, learning disabilities, dementia, and other needs. Safeguarding the well-being of elderly residents is crucial, as medication errors can severely impact their health. By utilizing eMAR, care homes can effectively reduce the likelihood of medication mistakes, thereby fostering a safer and more efficient medication administration process. This not only enhances the quality of care provided but also instills confidence in families regarding the safety of their loved ones.

The immediate exchange of medication and patient details fosters teamwork among care groups, including pharmacies, creating a genuine partnership in delivering patient care. Utilizing bar-code scanning during medication administration upholds the “7 rights”: the correct resident, medication, dosage, timing, method, rationale, and documentation. Capturing digital images of each resident and their medications ensures that administration remains precise. Alert notifications help prevent incidents such as missed doses and administering medications to the wrong resident, thereby enhancing safety. Scanning at the point of care not only identifies which medications are due for administration but also clearly indicates when any medications have been stopped. By integrating bar-coded adherence packaging with oneMAR, healthcare facilities can achieve a 2.6-fold increase in efficiency compared to traditional manual medication administration records, cut down medication pass durations by 52%, and eliminate the costs associated with monthly inventory changes. Additionally, sending electronic prescriptions and supply orders directly to the pharmacy streamlines the overall medication management process, improving patient care even further. This technology-driven approach represents a significant advancement in ensuring both accuracy and efficiency in medication administration.
