We have frequent eMAR/BMV - Record Locks. They all occur when the computer looses wireless network connection while the nurse is documenting her medications. It can also cause a lock while in Process Inreventions or Assessments if you loose connection while doing these functions. We go into Meditech Operations and kill the job (Group) and everything is okay. All IT staff have access from home and can kill the job from home. Meditech does not do this for us.

I believe it is most likely occurring after an abnormal termination of the session. We have had a couple of episodes this week and Meditech states that only they can unlock the record. This is not a good situation - especially in the middle of the night. I think there should be a way that the lock can be released by the hospital IT staff to reduce the time it takes to get the issue fixed. Has anyone else encountered this and if so - do you know if there have been any requests out to Meditech to provide this functionality?
