What’s on it
10 things to check.
Everything that matters, nothing that does not. Here is the full list, exactly as it appears on the template.
- 1Check the right person, right medicine, right dose, right time and right route before giving anything
- 2Read the MAR chart against the labelled dispensed medicine and the prescription before administering
- 3Sign the MAR chart at the time of each dose, never in advance and never afterwards from memory
- 4Use the standard codes for any dose not given (refused, withheld, sleeping, hospital, social leave) rather than leaving a blank
- 5Record any "when required" (PRN) medicine with the reason, time and amount given, and whether it helped
- 6Never crush, hide or alter a medicine (covert administration) without a recorded best-interests decision and pharmacist advice
- 7Count and check stock on hand against what the chart says has been given, and investigate any mismatch
- 8Store medicines securely and at the right temperature, including the 2-8C fridge for those that need it
- 9Report any medication error or missed dose straight away and record what was done about it
- 10Keep MAR charts complete and filed so there is a full audit trail from supply to administration or disposal
Good to know
A blank box on a MAR chart is treated as a potential medication error because it does not show whether the dose was given; CQC expects every entry to be signed at the time, with a recognised code used whenever a dose is not administered.
