MAR Chart Check
A new feature to improve patient safety for patients on the MAR has been added. The MAR Chart Check allows users to compare the current MAR to the latest Clinical Order Sheet.
The top row in both the Month & Day MAR views will be for a Chart Check with the description "Review and Reconcile MAR and Clinical Orders." The Chart Check row will not require verification or approval and cannot be Locked or Stopped. The Chart Check will be included when printing the MAR from either view.
The MAR entry for the Chart Check will be added when the next med change is ordered and the note is compiled. Each following month will have the Chart Check record.
A new area of the MAR Schedule shows a list of patients under the heading Chart Check Due. Clicking on the green arrow icon opens a screen with the Chart Check row above the side by side MAR list and most recent Clinical Order Sheet. Once users complete the Chart Check, they will click in the cell for that date's time slot to record either "Check Complete" or "Incomplete Check." If "Incomplete Check" is selected, a comment is required.
