Red Deer Hospital Lottery 2019 Cause: Pyxis Medstations

Pyxis Medstations are automated medication dispensing units with numerous electronic features to ensure safety, accuracy and efficiency.

In our hospital, over 1,000 new medication orders are written by prescribers and processed every day. 13,000 units of medication are dispensed on the care areas every 24 hours. The process for dispensing this medication is paper-based and manual with nurses selecting medication from a patient drawer or from the unit supply.

Patient safety is of utmost concern in our hospital, and the Pyxis system will help ensure the best possible healthcare for Central Albertans. Automated medication dispensing will ensure possible allergies, drug interactions, and duplicates in therapy are reviewed before medication is given, reduce the chances of a patient receiving the wrong medication, only allow access to medications approved for that patient, warn if a medication is selected too early or too late for a patient, provide additional instruction and information on medications to healthcare providers, enhance communication between the pharmacy and nursing.

The technology will further ensure medication dispensing safety with ‘bedside medication verification’. Once a medication has been selected for a patient, the nurse will scan the patient file at the bedside before administering the medication to that patient.2019 proceeds will be used to purchase Pyxis Medstations for use in emergency, the intensive care unit, operating room, recovery room, unit 22 (cardiology), & other critical care areas at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre.

Hi my friends. As most of you know I’m the Chair of the Central Alberta Child Advocacy Center and we’ve been running a Home Lottery Campaign.

We’ve had to extend the draw because we have to sell quite a few more tickets. The support from the community has been great but we have to do more.

I’m looking for 100 people to volunteer this coming Thursday night to go door to door and sell tickets. If you or possibly some of your staff or co workers would be able to help out, that would be awesome.

Anyone interested can email me at Terry@abbeyplatinum.ca or text me at 403-896 3675

We are going to meet at the Sheraton Hotel at 5:30 pm on Thursday March 21 in the Palermo Room to get credentials, information and ticket forms.

More information when I get a list of people. There will be some prizes for most sold etc.

I really appreciate the help for this great cause. We have looked after over 450 children in just over a year in Central Alberta. https://cacaclottery.ca

From Todayville

Since it opened 16 months ago, the Central Alberta Child Advocacy Centre has served over 440 children from more than 50 different communities. The Child Advocacy Centre is raising funds to build a facility specifically for their purpose of bringing healing to the lives of children who have been abused. Support from all these communities will be critical.

The Advocacy Centre “must” sell more tickets! If you’ve already made your purchase you can still help. Make sure your friends and loved ones know about this lottery. Please do your best to spread the news to your contacts in Edmonton and Calgary and around the province. So many people would love a chance to own a new home for just $35 dollars.
