Using Advanced Filters in eMAR

Advanced filters in eMAR sort and locate orders by hour of administration, type of medications, and supplementary documentation requirements. For example, medications that require a blood pressure prior to administration. 

Advanced filters can improve the efficiency of medication administration and documentation by allowing you to quickly prioritize your residents and their orders. 

  1. eMAR > Resident list > Click Advanced.

    Note

    The Advanced filter is also available in the resident chart.
