Nurses in understaffed nursing homes lack a reliable way to track, verify, and reorder medications, leading to medication borrowing, false accusations, and patient safety risks.

The EMR does not reliably reflect medication status or delivery, and manual phone calls to the pharmacy are frequent but ineffective. There is no system to track medication across shifts, carts, or borrowed doses, leading to gaps and false accusations.
