Read what happens in the video
- 0:00 “Scan the medication.” The CareMAR logo and name sit at the top left until the end card, and a label at the top right reads “Sample data, not a real person”. On a phone, a dose is open: “Ellis, Margaret”, “Room 4”, “Amlodipine”, “10 mg · Oral · 08:00”, with “Given” chosen beside “Not Given” and “Refused”. Below, the “Package barcode check” shows “Scan package”, “Stop camera”, “No barcode on package” and “Check again”, and its camera view shows a carton marked “Amlodipine” and “10 mg”; a line sweeps across the carton’s barcode.
- 0:02 “The app checks it against the order.” The screen reads “Checking the current order and package…”, then “Quantity prepared (tablet)” with “1” entered, “Package and prepared dose verified.”, “Product check: Product matches the current order.”, “Prepared dose check: Prepared quantity matches the prescribed dose.” and “This check compares recorded product and dose information. It does not prove what was physically administered.”
- 0:05 “A barcode check, not proof of what was given.” The view moves down the app’s result to its own last line: “This check compares recorded product and dose information. It does not prove what was physically administered.”
- 0:09 “Then it records who gave it, and when.” The button “Checked barcode details — record medication” is tapped and the screen says “Administration recorded”. The medication pass returns: “Medication Pass”, “4 of 6 patients with medications this shift · Updated 08:12”, “AM”, “PM”, “NOC”, “07:00 – 15:00”, the counts “0 overdue”, “2 due”, “0 PRN available” and “3 completed”, and the bar “60% · 3/5 completed”. For “ME”, “Ellis, Margaret”, “Room 4”, “1 due”, the dose “Amlodipine”, “10 mg · Oral · 08:00”, “Once daily (QD) · Times: 08:00” turns “Completed”, and the next reads “Glipizide”, “5 mg · Oral · 08:30”, “Once daily (QD) · Times: 08:30”, “Due now”. A card lifts out: “Amlodipine”, “Completed”, “Administered by Rosa Martinez at 08:12”.
- 0:13 “The month’s MAR, ready to print.” The phone shows “Monthly Medication Administration Record”, “Ellis, Margaret · Room 4”, “Export PDF”, “Medication”, the days S 3 to F 9, and the rows “Amlodipine 10 mg · 08:00”, “Lisinopril 20 mg · 08:00”, “Eliquis 5 mg · 08:00”, “Glipizide 5 mg · 08:30”, “Eliquis 5 mg · 20:00” and “Atorvastatin 40 mg · 20:00”, each given day checked and today’s later doses open. “Export PDF” is tapped and the month prints as a page beside the phone, whose header reads “CAREMAR”, “Linden Row Care Home” and “RM”. The page: “Linden Row Care Home”, “Monthly Medication Administration Record”, “Resident: Margaret Ellis (Room: 4)”, “Status Key”, “G = Given · P = Pending”, “Profile: Standard MAR”, and a grid headed “Med”, “Dose”, “Rte” and “Time” with the days 1 to 14 and four rows, “Amlodipine”, “Lisinopril”, “Eliquis” and “Glipizide”, with their doses (“10 mg”, “20 mg”, “5 mg”), “oral”, their times (“08:00”, “08:30”) and a “G” for each dose given; “CONFIDENTIAL” and “Page 1 of 4” at the foot.
- 0:16 “The count, every shift, with a witness.” The phone shows “Shift Handoff”, “Wrap up your shift before signing out.”, “Step 4 of 4” and “Controlled Substance Count Verification”: “Verify physical counts with a witness. Every count and any discrepancy is recorded for review.” Under “Witness (another on-shift staff member)” the witness is “Grace Tan, LVN”, and “2 medications on this count”: “Oxycodone 5 mg”, “Schedule: II”, “30 last counted · −2 given”, “Expected” 28, “Actual” 28, “Difference” 0; and “Lorazepam 0.5 mg”, “Schedule: IV”, “14 last counted · −1 given”, “Expected” 13, “Actual” 13, “Difference” 0. Then “Attested by Grace Tan, LVN’s PIN”.
- 0:20 “Staff give care. The app keeps the record.” The printed month, close; the view drifts slowly down its grid of given doses.
- 0:24 End card: “CareMAR”, “Your residents’ records stay yours.”, “Medication records for small care homes.”, “Request a demo” and “caremar.us”. The phone rests in the corner, out of focus.

Clinical Workflows
Built for how nurses actually work
CareMAR organizes every shift around what matters most — getting the right medication to the right resident at the right time.
Priority-ordered med passes
Overdue medications surface first. Staff always see what needs attention right now.
Three-tier notes
Notes at the medication level, patient level, and facility level. Nothing falls through the cracks.
Shift handoff prompts
At logout, staff are prompted to document what the next shift needs to know. Every handoff is recorded.
Email alerts & digests (planned)
Not currently shipped. Notification configuration, delivery, and history remain a later release.
One-click compliance reports
Generate defined PDF reports with the fields supported by each report type.
Built for small facilities who do it all
From hospice to home health — CareMAR is designed for facilities with 4 to 40 residents.
Hospice
End-of-life comfort care
Assisted Living
Daily support for seniors
Care Homes
Residential long-term care
Group Homes
Community-based living
Home Health
In-home patient services
Skilled Nursing
Medical & rehab facilities
Running a small facility means wearing every hat. CareMAR is built for your team — not for 200-bed hospitals with IT departments. CareMAR is nurse-led: nurses work alongside former Amazon engineers to build and guide the product.
Care-grade charting, built in
Vitals, ADLs, incidents, care plans, and a hospice module — one configurable engine that adapts to every facility you run.
4/5 live
Care-grade clinical charting
Vitals, observations, ADLs, and progress notes — captured at the bedside.
Incident reports & care plans
Unusual-event reports and versioned, resident-specific care plans.

Hospice comfort module
Comfort-kit tracking, symptom and comfort scoring, and end-of-life workflows.
AI charting assistant
Drafts progress notes and care plans for your staff to review and approve.
One charting engine, configured for the way each facility works — hospice, assisted living, care homes, group homes, home health, and skilled nursing.
One engine, every setting
The same charting engine, re-charted for each setting
Switch the setting — every tab re-charts. The same vitals, ADL, care-plan, incident, and comfort tools adapt to each kind of resident.

Implementation in reviewed steps
Document the deployment boundary, configure the workflow, train staff, and verify before go-live.
Confirm the deployment boundary
We document the client configuration, AWS account boundary, roles, enabled modules, recovery controls, and responsibilities before setup.
Track every dose
Medication administration records include timestamps, staff attribution, configured fields, and audit events.
Prepare records for review
Use defined PDF and CSV report workflows plus chronological audit records. Software supports preparation but does not guarantee a survey result.
Why facilities choose CareMAR
A thoughtful approach to AI
Most eMAR companies don't offer any AI — and the ones that do often rush it in without real training. We're taking a different path. Today, we offer hands-on AI training for your staff as a separate service, so your team learns to use AI tools effectively. An AI writing assistant inside CareMAR is coming in a future release.
Records built for review
Configured fields, timestamps, staff attribution, audit events, and defined reports support record review. State applicability and survey outcomes remain the facility's responsibility.
Know the deployment boundary
CareMAR resolves a client-specific backend and identity configuration. Account ownership, support access, data return, retention, and continuity are documented for the proposed deployment rather than assumed on this page.
