Unity clinical systems and processes affected by clock change: 27 October, 12.45am BST to 1.30am GMT

October 16, 2024

Clocks are set to go back this month on Sunday 27 October, please be assured Unity will remain fully available and electronic orders and results will continue to flow. 

However, please be aware that colleagues may see the following message if a clinical action was scheduled to take place between 1am to 1.59am on Sunday 27 October, highlighting an inconsistency in times.

Ambiguous time message

This dialog could appear for some users after the time change occurs. Please note this is not an error and perfectly normal.

If a clinical action is scheduled to occur during the duplicate hour (from 1am to 1.59am) a user could potentially get this popup.

Select “Daylight” if the action is to take place in the FIRST 1.00 to 1.59 hour

Select “Standard” if the action is to take place in the SECOND 1.00 to 1.59 hour

Please be assured the activity will be closely monitored at all times.

Should you have any further queries then please contact your line manager in the first instance or the IT Service Desk on ext. 4050 or by contacting the Chat with the IT Service Desk.
