Medications Overview Widget

1. Access the Alerts Widget

   • Locate the Alerts widget on your dashboard. If it's not visible, use the Customize Dashboard option to add it.

   • The widget has two primary tabs: Medications and Health Monitor.

2. Review Medication Alerts

   • The Medications tab lists any resident who has missed a medication on the medpass within the last 72 hours.

   • Click the button next to a resident's name to go directly to their medpass.

3. Administer Missed Medications

   • On the medpass, scroll back to previous days to find medications that were not administered.

   • Use the batch process medication button to quickly mark and administer all missed doses at once.

   • For certain medications, such as topical creams, you may need to complete additional steps like marking the body silhouette.

4. Complete PRN Effectiveness

   • Alerts can also be triggered by pending PRN effectiveness reviews. Navigate to the PRN meds section.

   • Under the pending review tab, select the PRN.

   • Mark if it was effective, ensure the administration and effective dates are close, add a note, and save.

5. Check the Medlog

   • You can also view missed medications in the medlog.

   • While you can update records here, it is recommended to use the batch processing feature on the medpass for faster administration.
