Medications At A Glance
The Medications module opens with the selected patient’s current medication orders and recent MAR activity in an easy-to-scan Summary.
•The patient heading row shows the selected patient’s name, age, gender, location, and MRN. Use this information to verify that this is the right patient.
•The module header shows the number of current medications ordered for the patient (active or inactive), such as “Medications (9).” When you apply a filter, this line is updated and the Filter button displays at the top of the list. For example “Medications (2)” indicates that only two medication orders match the filter, and “Filtered by: Active” indicates that only Active medications are displayed.
•In the Medications view , each medication order is summarized on a separate line that shows the Med Order name and dosing information, the Start date and time, and the Status (such as Active or Hold; your institution might use different status names).
Discontinued medications appear grayed out and are labeled with a “Discontinued” status. A comment is indicated with an asterisk (*).
From the Medications Summary list, you can review the details for any medication order. Select a medication order to display the details. See Viewing Medication Details.
•In the 24-hr meds view , medications that were given over the past 24-hours are summarized. Each medication is displayed on a separate line that shows the Med Order name and dosing information, the Date and Time of the medication administration, and the Provider who administered the medication.
From the 24-hr meds Summary list, you can review the details for any medication activity, and select a medication in the list to display the details. See Medications: MAR View.
NOTE: If MAR Medication Data is not enabled for your organization, then this tab contains no data.
