Protect access to patient information

Create a passkey, which lets you verify your identity with your device or password manager without a password, and use it to open the patient register in an approved Workplace.

  1. Create a passkey

    Where you are: The patient register requires a passkey before patient information can be opened.

    What to do: Select Create passkey and follow your browser's instructions.

    Complete when: Your passkey is registered for the active Workplace.

  2. Unlock patient information

    Where you are: Your passkey is registered and the patient register remains locked.

    What to do: Select Unlock with passkey and confirm in your browser.

    Complete when: The patient register opens temporarily for the active Workplace.

  3. Check the patient register

    Where you are: The Patient register heading appears when unlocking is complete.

    What to do: Check that the correct Workplace is active before continuing.

    Complete when: You can now work with the patient information covered by your access.
