MAR

MAR stands for Medication Administration Records and refers to the software modules in SmartCare where you manage the information about administering medications and other orders to clients. There are two SmartCare MAR modules: Client and Group. Both allow you to enter and manage administering medications and other orders. Client MAR allows you to work with just one client at a time, whereas, Group MAR lets you manage administering medications and other orders to all clients grouped by Program and time.
