Are you ready?
Monday
Welcome to the 14th edition of the Electronic Patient Record (EPR) programme newsletter. Only 2 weeks to go until we move away from SemaHelix to the new CareFlow system We are pleased to see so many colleagues getting involved in our EPR activities and completing all tasks that are given to them This is only the first phase with many exciting new systems coming in the future
No access to the LMS training?
If you ’ re an agency worker, or fulfil a role in our hospitals that involves the PAS, you will need to be trained on CareFlow.
This will be delivered a little differently if you are not a substantive member of SaTH staff, as you wont have access to LMS You will be sent an email with links to training according to your role from our team
You will need to inform the sender when you have completed your training – compliance will be monitored, and once training is complete your CareFlow account will be created
If you have any training questions, please contact sath.ittrainingteam@nhs.net.
Have you completed your training? Training compliance is currently at 83.1%.
If you have not yet completed your training on LMS, please complete it this week Do not leave it any later as you will not have access to the new systems
After completing your training, you can access the CareFlow sandpit environment to practise the system in your own time Follow the instructions to request it here Please make your request for the sandpit environment this week
If you don’t have access to LMS, you can find out more details about training here.
If you completed your training before Thursday 1 February, you are required to complete refresher training. This is an 11 minute video which can be booked via LMS.
If you haven’t completed your training, you will not have access to the new systems at Go Live. Email sath.ittrainingteam@nhs.net if you have any questions
