The app is suitable for residential healthcare providers, such as care homes, palliative care facilities, and nursing homes. The tool integrates with medication dispensing software, enabling pharmacists to enter drug information directly via its interface. Staff can view reordered, discontinued, and on-hold drugs when practicing med-pass. eMar syncs offline and provides backup reports, even during a power or network outage. Users can enter STAT medication through a contingency box for safe dispensing in a few clicks. eMAR features a self-administration button, allowing residents to capture self-administered drug information without needing care staff to maintain daily records. Nurses can use the Pop and Dot feature to sign off for medications in bulk after the residents have verified that all medications are present. > > Verdict: Rated **4.6/5** by 18 users.

It provides a clear snapshot of important management information which can be used to quickly analyse data and correct anything that needs attention. The various reports and ease of access to data is something that saves Management a considerable amount of time when completing audits. The product offering itself is vast and comprehensive. Most importantly, it's the people behind the product. The support is fantastic. From implementation all the way through to live support several years later. > > **Cons**: Not so much something with the software but generally speaking, integrations with care planning companies (at least the main players) would be hugely beneficial. > > The product itself is great. It does the job if used correctly. The people behind the scenes supping the product and the customers are fabulous and don't get the credit they deserve. Other software firms focus on sales. They forget product development and they certainly skimp on support. This doesn't happen with MED eCare. ----- ### "MED e-care eMAR is a Reliable Option for LTC" — 4.0/5 > **Michele** | *21 October 2021* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We like the visual layout of the system. It is easy to tell on one screen if all the meds for the current day have been signed off. The integration with Kroll is almost seamless. > > **Cons**: There is no alert to missed meds on previous days. No scanning capabilities. No integration with Momentum although it has been promised for years. > > Our overall experience has been positive. It is sometimes hard to get prompt response from support when there is a problem, but this seems to be slowly improving over the last year. Having used another eMAR system in concurrence, we appreciate how much easier this e-MAR is, how smoothly the integration usually works, and there are less steps for pharmacists and assistants involved as compared to other platforms. We have had a positive response after a software update changed the refill functionality to be very confusing and time consuming. After our complaints, a change was made in a timely manner that was much more user friendly. There has been an increase in their responsiveness to requests in the last few years. ----- ### "Upgraded But Still Could Improve" — 2.0/5 > **Dee** | *5 May 2020* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Customer support is extremely fast and friendly\! > > **Cons**: It is slower to use, and is not user-friendly in learning how to use the software. ----- ### "EMAR excellence" — 5.0/5 > **Michelle** | *28 September 2021* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Resident photos - photo disappears once meds administered to resident Shows only those who have meds due at administration times Ability to sort by room or name Ability to mark residents on LOA Ability to write notes Description of medication is provided Efficient use of time as no longer need to check and double check orders every month against next month mars as done in past with paper mars > > **Cons**: Unable to change a prn medication once it has been administered. Very occasional staff have hit administered to a prn and then the resident changes their mind. Unable to fix this when it is a prn. With scheduled medication you are able to go back in and adjust. Occasionally staff would mark a resident as away or as in hospital and then they return and meds need to be given. These meds you have the ability to go back in and change the away to administered. > > Overall experience is fantastic using e-Mar. In previous years of working with Paper mars, the e-mar is much more efficient. Smaller chance of errors with missed medications or missed residents. Saves time with not needing to check and double check the paper mar orders at the end of every month to be sure everything is on the new months paper mar. ----- ### "Very Grateful for MEDe-care Software, Implementation and Support Teams" — 5.0/5 > **Delani** | *6 January 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: MEDe-care's eMAR is straightforward to use and can be used for a variety of healthcare environments. Training new users is easy and feedback is always positive as they enjoy the simplicity and flexibility of the application. The MEDe-care e-MAR implementation team is AMAZING; they are always available when needed and truly go above and beyond to ensure set-up is done correctly with minimal disruption to all parties involved. > > **Cons**: From a pharmacy perspective, there are some features related to user/site set-up and the ability to modify orders that could be improved, but MEDe-care is excellent at responding to customer feedback and when able to, will regularly release updates to improve functionality accordingly. > > As mentioned previously, I think the MEDe-care implementation team is amazing\! Their support team is also extremely helpful and responsive. I have had the privilege of working with the MEDe-care team for over 10 years now and I really don't know what I would do without them\! ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/323279/e-mar?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/323279/e-mar) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
