MedRound is used to record all medication administrations in your facility. If a medication isn’t given, you can select an exception code and add a note to explain why.
To record an administration correctly, follow these steps:
Click Medication round and use the drop-down to select the round time.
Click the resident to complete medicine administration.
Residents with black and white photos have either no scheduled medication due or their medication administration is complete for this round.
Their medication administration screen can still be accessed for recording PRN items.
Review the resident’s profile: Diagnosis, Allergies, Information, and Medication Orders.
Identify and prepare the medication in line with your local policies and procedures.
Click the medication tile to select it. A green tick appears as confirmation.
Repeat step 5 for all scheduled and PRN items required.
After the medication has been taken or refused/withheld, click Next.
On the Review/Recording Screen, review all information. For each item, use the drop-down to select any exceptions that apply.
Complete all required details: Vital Signs, Quantities, Reasons for administration, Follow-up times, etc.
Once all information is accurate, click Record All.
If any details are missing or the medication is given outside normal time ranges, the system prompts for a note and won’t allow you to proceed.
If Show Stock Balance is enabled, confirm or amend the stock balance to match the inventory.
Failing this creates a task that appears as a medtile.
The system prompts for final confirmation of the resident’s MedRound. If you’re satisfied, click OK.
Once confirmed, this record can only be edited by a system administrator.
The Resident Selection screen appears again. If all scheduled medications have been recorded, the resident’s photo displays in black and white.
