In myEvolv, if you have the appropriate access, you can add, modify, view, delete, and route standing medication orders. You also can enter and modify standing orders as a batch, which simplifies routing the orders for approval. Once standing orders are approved, if eMAR is enabled, the medications become available in eMAR.
