Testimonials

“The ECP System has definitely improved the med pass process. It saves time and assures a clear and consistent written order for medication administration. With the old MAR book there were many errors due to misunderstanding the book, the directions, and it was hard to read.”
- Kindred Hearts Senior Living

“The vitals portion of ECP is great!  It allows us to
determine numerically and visually a baseline for individuals and it is a breeze to send this information to the resident’s health care providers.”
- Harbor House Senior Living
