We are a C/S 5.5 site going live with PCS and EMAR in the next few weeks. During planning we had to develop a way for the nursing staff to know what medications to pull from the Pyxis med station without having a paper medex with them. We developed our Status Board with a MED column that will pull all overdue, scheduled and prn meds due.

ISSUE : Our prepared IVs only show on the status board as “IV”. Our IV floor stock (D5W) entered by Pharmacy, do NOT show at all on the status board.

Since Meditech took the View MAR option away in 5.5 we are not sure if there any other options out there? Meditech’s response to the display of only “IV” is to further drill down into the MAR in the med room. The issue with this is the status board in the Pyxis med room will be set up as a "dummy" user by location and MIS is very concerned with no control over the MAR access.

Thank you for taking the time to review!
