To document that a medication has been given to a resident, follow these steps in this video or scroll down for written instructions with screenshots if you prefer!

Written instructions:
​Step 1:
Navigate to the eMAR tab at the bottom of the left menu.

Step 2:
Once you're in eMAR, make sure you are in the "Pass Meds" tab, then select the resident to whom you need to give the medication.

Step 3:

On the resident's page, find the medication you are giving and then click "Mark as Done." You will see a green check mark indicating that the medication was given.

Step 4:

Once all necessary medications have been given to the resident and marked as done, you can click the button on the bottom right to confirm the med pass.

*Please note that any medication left undone or not given will need a reason for exception, which can be noted when confirming the medication pass.
