Sound familiar?

Paper charts stop scaling at about resident ten.

A missed signature at 2am

You cannot prove a dose was given — or catch that it was not — until the next paper audit finds the gap, weeks later.

Your pharmacy is flying blind

Resupply happens over phone calls and sticky notes, with no shared view of what is actually running low.

Rotas live in three places

A spreadsheet for shifts, a group chat for cover, a separate app for timesheets — none of it talks to the MAR chart.

The MAR chart grid: each row a medication and dose time, each column a day, with colour-coded outcomes for given, refused and missed doses.
Each row a medication and dose time; each column a day of the supply cycle.

eMAR & scan-to-give

Every dose scanned, verified and timestamped.

Staff scan the barcode on the pack at the bedside. We confirm it is the right resident and the right medicine before the dose can be recorded.

  • Barcode scan-to-give at the point of care — the server re-checks the scan, not just the phone
  • One outcome per dose — two carers cannot both sign for the same 08:00 tablet
  • Every MAR code — given, refused, in hospital, asleep, self-administered
  • Controlled drugs countersigned by a second member of staff with their own PIN
  • Printable barcode labels generated per medication
Adding a resident: name, date of birth, NHS number and their floor, area, room and bed.
A resident is admitted to a real bed, not a typed room number.

Residents & records

Every resident, floor, room and bed — mapped and searchable.

Describe your building once. From then on a resident is admitted to an actual bed, which is what lets the system refuse to put two people in the same one.

  • NHS number, date of birth and allergies on every profile
  • Floor, area, room and bed mapping with live occupancy
  • Vital signs on a schedule, and a wound tracker with body maps
  • Movements, care notes and resident feedback as optional modules

On the floor

The staff app carries the round.

Clocking in takes the app over. What is left is one line of residents to see and one decision on screen at a time.

Questions

The things homes ask us first.

Is eMAR suitable for a CQC-registered care home?

Yes. It is built around the records CQC asks to see: a contemporaneous MAR chart, an audit trail with a name and a time against every entry, and evidence that a change in someone's condition was noticed and acted on. Keeping good records helps you show what your service did — it supports an inspection, it does not replace your own policies or governance.

Do we need new hardware?

No. Staff scan medication barcodes with the camera on the phone they already carry. The dashboard runs in any modern browser on the office computer you already have.

What does a pharmacy pay?

A pharmacy subscribes to its own plan — £150 a month, covering ten linked care homes, then £4 a month for each additional home. That covers the portal, unlimited pharmacy staff and driver accounts, deliveries and returns.

Who pays for the care home's subscription?

Either the pharmacy or the home. Many pharmacies fund the eMAR for the homes they supply; equally, a home can register on its own, choose its own plan and link to whichever pharmacy supplies it with an invite code. The home keeps its own account and data either way.

How long does setup take?

Most homes are recording doses the same day. You describe your floors, areas, rooms and beds once, add residents and their medication, and print the barcode labels.

Can two carers accidentally record the same dose twice?

No. A scheduled dose can be recorded once per slot per day, enforced in the database rather than only in the app — so even two phones a moment apart cannot double-sign the same 08:00 tablet. The second carer is told who signed for it and when.
