oneMAR vs. DxScript

The prompt exchange of medication information and patient data enhances collaboration among various care teams, including pharmacies, thereby establishing a true partnership in the provision of patient care. Implementing bar-code scanning during the medication administration process ensures adherence to the “7 rights”: the correct individual, medication, dosage, timing, method, rationale, and documentation. Additionally, taking digital photographs of each patient along with their medications guarantees that the administration process remains accurate and reliable. Alert notifications serve to mitigate risks such as missed doses and the potential for administering medications to the incorrect resident, significantly improving patient safety. Scanning medications at the point of care not only reveals which medications are due but also clearly indicates any that have been discontinued. By incorporating bar-coded adherence packaging with oneMAR, healthcare facilities can significantly enhance efficiency, achieving up to a 2.6-fold increase compared to traditional manual medication administration records, while reducing medication pass times by 52% and eliminating costs related to monthly inventory adjustments. Furthermore, the ability to send electronic prescriptions and supply orders straight to the pharmacy optimizes the entire medication management workflow, further elevating the standard of patient care. Overall, this innovative technology marks a considerable leap forward in both the precision and efficiency of medication administration processes while fostering a safer healthcare environment. By embracing these advancements, healthcare providers can ensure that patients receive the highest level of care possible.
