8/12/24 PYXIS Upgrade week of 8/13/2024
August 12, 2024

Starting tomorrow Tuesday,  August 13th @ 8pm we will be upgrading the Pyxis Server to the new ES 1.7 platform.  The Server upgrade can take up to 10hrs and all Pyxis stations will be placed on "Critical Override" for the duration. The Server will not be available until the upgrade is completed. 

 
Starting Monday (8/19/2018) evening we will begin upgrading the Pyxis stations to the new 1.7 platform. The down time for each station can take up to 2 hours. Nurses will not have access to the Pyxis station during that time. Signs indicating the upgrade will be placed on the Pyxis stations during the upgrade. Pat Pelzer will also call each unit 1 hour before their scheduled down time as a reminder and for the RNs to remove medications that might be neeeded.  
 
Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
 
Thanks,
Andrea
