Forty percent of seniors take five-plus prescription medications on a regular basis — triple the rate from twenty years ago. In senior living communities, this level of medication use comes with a heightened risk for medication-related errors. 

See the value of EHRs in this senior living white paper. Explore the benefits of Yardi EHR and eMAR.

Fortunately, with effective technology solutions in place, providers can ensure they’re passing medications securely. This helps mitigate the risk of medication errors and in turn, enhances care, limits liability and boosts resident satisfaction.

Our informative white paper explores the value of technology further, sharing the benefits of our single-stack, ever-evolving solutions: Yardi EHR and eMAR.

Understanding medication errors in senior living

The white paper — The Importance of EHRs in Senior Living — details the different types of medication errors with a focus on adverse drug events (ADEs). You’ll see how seniors are the highest-risk age group for ADEs, with supporting statistics like the following:

Older adults are twice as likely than younger people to visit the emergency room due to an ADE, and seven times more likely to be hospitalized after an ER visit as a result.

What can senior living providers do to help reduce ADEs? Implementing electronic health records and medication management technology is key — and the white paper shares why. You’ll see how EHR technology can help prevent anywhere from 28% to 95% of ADEs.

Yardi EHR is our full-service electronic health record solution that combines your clinical intake process, wound care charting, behavior management, interoperability initiatives and more on a browser-based, mobile-friendly platform. By simplifying record keeping and centralizing workflows on a single online platform, you ensure residents receive accurate, effective care.

When paired with Yardi eMAR, our dynamic medication management solution, our EHR solution offers even more benefits.
