Unity Printing Maintenance on Tuesday 10 December from 10pm to 11pm
December 9, 2024
Please be aware essential Unity maintenance will be taking place on Tuesday 10 December to ensure the supporting infrastructure remains secure and security compliant. The work is scheduled to begin at 10pm for approximately one hour and should be completed by 11pm.
During this time Unity will remain fully available; however from 10pm until 10:05pm on Tuesday 10 December Unity printing will be briefly unavailable at the following site locations:
- Sandwell Outpatients
- Rowley Regis Hospital
- Leasowes Immediate Care Centre
This will affect specimen label, requisition, and pharmacy printing.
Any print jobs submitted during this time will be held and printed once the print servers come back online.
If clinical staff are due to collect a sample between time above, we would advise them to wait until specimen labelling functionality returns. If staff have a very urgent specimen to collect that cannot wait to collect and send to pathology, then a manual pathology request form will need to be completed and sent with the sample. It is envisaged that this requirement will be rare and unlikely at those times.
