Yes, the pixis or omnicell, will carry the override into the eMAR so that it can be documented on. We did that for awhile and actually the nurses will still do it, especially on STAT orders. However, we have started to outsource our pharmacy after hours and have been doing this for a little over a year. This has worked out wonderfully. We fax all new orders to the outsourced pharmacy and the pharmacist then can check for allergies and drug interactions and then they put the drug in and we can get it out of one of the pixis or omnicells. So far it has worked very well. Turnover time of faxing and seeing it in the eMAR is about 15-20 min.
