MAR Chart Service

This Specification has been co-produced by Sheffield City Council and Sheffield Local Pharmaceutical Committee to establish a funded, formalised and consistent process for issuing MAR Charts. The Medication Administration Record Service is designed to support providers delivering home care services on behalf of the Council to achieve best practice, as defined by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence and Care Quality Commission in respect of medication administration and governance. Participating pharmacies will supply a MAR Chart for adults aged 18 and over in receipt of home care funded by the Council (including both in-house services and any organisation delivering services on behalf of the Council) who is assessed as requiring support at Level  i.e. where the Care Worker is responsible for ‘removing medication from the container and directly administering’ the medication.

Claims for this service should be made in a timely manner via Pharmoutcomes.
