Same care worker.

Same responsibility.

A very different experience.

🚩 On the left: paper MAR charts, manual checks, more room for error.

💊 On the right: eMAR Plus, real-time records, and PillPacPlus barcode scanning at the point of administration.

This is what safer medication management looks like in practice.

Less paperwork. More confidence. Better protection for residents and staff.

📚 Training that works in the real world

We’ve had really positive feedback on the new eMAR Plus e-learning platform.

Care teams have told us the training is straightforward to use, thorough, and genuinely helpful, particularly for onboarding new staff.

It’s also reassuring to hear that the system and training have been well received during RQIA inspection, helping teams feel confident and prepared.

The truth is, even the best systems only work when staff feel supported. That’s exactly what this training is designed to do.

When medication rounds take less time, something important happens. 💜

Staff get more time where it matters most - with residents. Time to notice small changes, to have proper conversations, and to deliver care that feels calm rather than rushed.

That’s what many care teams tell us after moving away from paper MARs and using eMAR Plus day to day. Clear prompts, real-time records, and fewer interruptions mean medication rounds feel more controlled and more consistent, even on busy shifts.

The truth is, good medication systems don’t just reduce errors. They reduce pressure. And when staff feel supported, person-centred care naturally follows.

Technology should never be the focus. It should simply make good care easier to deliver.

Still using paper MAR charts? 📄

2026 is the year to move on. 💻

Paper records make audits harder, increase risk, and add pressure to already stretched care teams. That’s exactly why more providers are switching to digital medication records now...not later.

As Graeme Beatty, Housing with Care Manager at Radius Housing, shared after moving away from paper:

“Moving away from paper and onto the eMAR system has been much more secure for staff and residents and provides better accountability for everyone.”

What this means in practice: clearer audit trails, easier oversight, and safer medication rounds without adding complexity for staff.

Paper had its place.

eMAR Plus is built for what care needs next.

Something new is coming to eMAR Plus 👀

We’re rolling out a series of product updates designed to make medication management even safer, simpler, and more intuitive for care teams.

Less admin. Clearer oversight. More confidence on every medication round.

More details coming soon... watch this space.

05/01/2026

January is when many care homes review their medication processes, and it’s clear that paper MARs simply can’t keep up with today’s safety and compliance expectations.

At Antrim Care Home, switching to eMAR Plus cut medication administration times by over 50%, giving staff more time with residents and fewer risks during each round.

Digital records also remove common paper problems such as unreadable handwriting, missing signatures, and gaps that regularly cause issues during inspections. NICE guidance reinforces the importance of accurate, up-to-date documentation in safe medicines management.

With eMAR Plus you get:

🟣 Real-time alerts for missed or overdue doses

🟣 Time-stamped audit trails for every action

🟣 Clear, consistent records aligned with regulatory expectations

If safer, more efficient medication rounds are part of your goals this year, going digital is one of the simplest changes you can make.

We’re pleased to share that eMAR Plus will be exhibiting alongside PillPacPlus at the NI Pharmacy Trade & Retail Show 2026 in Belfast on Wednesday 28 January 📍

You’ll find us at the Crowne Plaza Hotel from 9am–6pm, where we’ll be showcasing how digital medication management and pharmacy automation can work together to strengthen safety, efficiency, and compliance across community pharmacy.

Here’s what you can explore on the day:

🟣 eMAR Plus: digital medication administration done safely and simply. Real-time alerts, clear audit trails and seamless pharmacy integration support consistent, compliant processes aligned with UK best-practice guidance.

🔵 PillPacPlus: pharmacy automation that makes dispensing safer and smoother. Pouch dispensing, optical checking and automated collection partnerships designed to reduce errors, streamline repeats and free up time for clinical services.

These tools are already helping pharmacists reduce dispensing errors, streamline repeat medication processes, and free up valuable time for clinical services 👏

For pharmacy teams exploring how technology can reduce errors, support governance, and modernise daily workflow, it’s a great opportunity to see both systems in action and speak directly with our teams.

We look forward to meeting pharmacy partners from across Northern Ireland and discussing how digital medication management can support safer, more efficient care.

See you there ⭐

A big end-of-year thank you from all of us at eMAR Plus 🎄✨

2025 has been a milestone year as we continued supporting more care homes, pharmacies and frontline teams across the UK and Ireland with safer, smarter medication management.

We strengthened our team, expanded our training and onboarding support, and rolled out key platform enhancements that made medication rounds faster, clearer and more compliant for care teams.

This year we also welcomed new faces to eMAR Plus each bringing fresh expertise and helping us deliver the high-standard service our partners value.

Our team spent the year out on the road meeting incredible care providers, attending sector events, and supporting on-site implementations that are already transforming medication practice in homes nationwide 🙌

Most importantly, we heard countless stories from managers and carers about how eMAR Plus has reduced errors, improved oversight and given staff precious time back to focus on residents, the impact that matters most.

To all our partners, clients and colleagues: thank you for your trust, collaboration and commitment throughout 2025.

Here’s to an even more innovative and impactful 2026 👏

Merry Christmas from our family to yours 🎄

Today, across the UK and Ireland, the dedicated people in our care homes aren't just staff, they are the Christmas family for so many.

We know that for you, Christmas Day isn't about time off; it's about making sure the magic, the warmth, and the safe, familiar routine of home never stops.

To every single nurse and carer working today: Thank you for your sacrifice, your joy, and your constant, unwavering care. You are the heartbeat of the season.

We are proud that eMAR Plus is running silently in the background today, ensuring medication safety is instant and effortless, so your focus can remain entirely on the shared moments of joy.

Wishing everyone in the care community a day filled with peace, love, and a feeling of home.

This Is What a 50% Time Saving Really Looks Like 👀

We commissioned an independent study at Antrim Care Home to measure the efficiency of eMAR Plus. The finding was clear: a 50% decrease in medication administration time.

But the most important result wasn't a number on a spreadsheet.

It's the moments we returned.

That 50% is the time a dedicated carer now spends sitting with a resident who needs a listening ear.

That 50% is the time a busy nurse can dedicate to that spontaneous moment of joy, rather than chasing illegible signatures.

We don't just sell technology; we help you give your staff the most precious commodity: time to care 💜

Thank you to Antrim Care Home for showing us that when paperwork shrinks, compassion expands.

Accountability isn’t just good practice it’s essential for safe, compliant care.

That’s why managers like Siobhan at Massereene Manor trust eMAR Plus.

With a clear audit trail for every action, teams can uphold high standards of care and simplify compliance across every medication round.

🟣 Stronger governance.
🟣 Safer practice.
🟣 Greater confidence.

That’s the eMAR Plus difference.

16/12/2025

Missed doses are one of the most common medication risks in care homes, especially during busy shifts, agency cover or periods of disruption. Even a single overlooked administration can have serious clinical consequences.

The eMAR Plus Missed Administrations Report gives managers immediate visibility of any missed dose, including the exact medication, time, date and the staff role assigned. Clear summaries and visual charts highlight patterns, helping teams identify trends and resolve issues quickly. 📈

This real-time oversight strengthens governance, supports safer medication practice and ensures nothing slips through the cracks.

With eMAR Plus, care teams can act on missed doses the moment they occur, not days later during an audit.
