EMars
What is an EMAR?
EMAR is an acronym for Electronic Medication Administration Record. It is software designed
to replace your current paper MARS.
What makes this system unique is it is dynamically linked to our pharmacy software. This means when we enter a new order, it is automatically displayed on your latptop or desktop computer. There are built in safeguards to ensure the order is reviewed and approved before it is displayed to your Med-Tech’s.
The software also acts as a communication vehicle from the Pharmacy to the Community and from the Community to the Pharmacy.
