TECHNOLOGY
eMAR
By employing eMAR (Electronic Medication Administration Record) in our communities, Autumn Senior Living demonstrates a clear commitment to accurate medication administration.
Shown to reduce errors by approximately 50%*, eMAR uses bar code technology to verify resident identity, and prescription instructions. It provides nurses a reliable way to record, monitor and ensure correct medication and dosage – to the correct resident, at the correct time, and using the correct method.
eMAR also makes nurses more efficient and effective with their time, reducing staff costs and permitting enhanced care in other important areas. Furthermore, important considerations and warnings may be relayed from doctor to pharmacist to nurse. The device allows for efficient inventory management, verification, and aids in decision-making processes.
Demonstrated benefits of eMAR:

Management
