Medication management for care homes
The average-sized care home has to process around 15,000 medication recording outcomes every month. That’s nearly 200,000 a year! Electronic MAR provides 3 key benefits to you as the Responsible Person in a manager or owner role:
1. Real-time checking and alerts
No one wants a “gap” on a MAR sheet especially one discovered days after the fact but it can easily happen.
Electronic MAR provides you and your staff with automated real-time checking and alerts so that you know if a medication is missed or overdue. Messages are sent via direct to mobile alerts, email alerts and dashboard pop-ups.
Medication should never be missed again, and we guarantee a massive reduction in errors and gaps.
2. Automated stock control
Managing the prescription cycle is a big task and manually tracking stock levels often means hours of admin time. Electronic MAR helps you to automate the process:
- Stock Tracking: The system keeps an exact, real-time count of every medication in the building.
- Low Stock Notifications: Your team is automatically notified when stock reaches pre-set thresholds, allowing you to reorder in good time.
This automation alone can save days of administrative work every month and the time-saving benefit is also covered by our guarantee.
3. Eliminate the paper trail
Paper MAR sheets must be stored for seven years, often filling up storage rooms and making it difficult to find records during a professional review or a CQC inspection. With Electronic MAR, your records are digital and instantly accessible:
- Instant Retrieval: Find any resident’s medication history within seconds, not hours.
- End of Physical Storage: Eliminate the need to keep years of paperwork in store rooms.
- Audit Readiness: Whether it’s a CQC inspection or other in quiry, your data is at your fingertips when you need it.
