For SIL, SDA and other providers supporting participants with medication needs, paper MAR charts are a real risk. Rostery's eMAR brings medication administration into the carer app with the checks and records the work demands.
How it works
Set up medication schedules for each participant and let workers record administrations against them, including PRN (as-needed) medications. Missed-dose alerts flag when a scheduled dose hasn't been given, and every administration is captured with worker sign-off. For controlled substances, dual-sign requirements add a second worker's verification. Reconciliation reports give supervisors and clinicians a clear view of what was administered.
Why it matters for NDIS providers
Medication errors are among the most serious risks in disability support. Electronic records with alerts and sign-offs reduce those errors and give you clear evidence that medications were managed properly.
- Fewer errors: schedules, prompts and sign-off reduce missed and wrong-dose events.
- Accountability: worker sign-off and controlled-substance dual-sign create a clear record.
- Oversight: missed-dose alerts and reconciliation reports keep supervisors informed.

Who it's for
Medication Management (eMAR) suits Australian NDIS, disability and aged-care providers of every size — from solo coordinators to multi-site organisations running multiple registered entities. Care teams, support workers and managers all work from the same live data across the Rostery web dashboard and the carer mobile app, so nothing falls through the cracks between the office and the field.
Getting started
Medication Management (eMAR) is included in your Rostery plan and works the moment your data is in — there's no separate module to buy or set up. Start a free trial to try it on your own workflows, and use Rostery's "Smart Switch" data migration to bring your existing clients, staff, shifts and notes across from your current software in minutes. Our team can walk you through your specific participant types, funding mix and rostering complexity in a quick demo.
