A shared record view in EMIS Web lets practices and other authorised organisations securely access selected parts of a patient’s healthcare record. This ensures that the right people can see the data they need, helping to reduce duplicate data entry and improve patient care.
Where to Find It
In EMIS Web, access the Care Record module and open Summary. From the ribbon menu, click CR Config and look for Sharing Navigator. You can configure a default view at both organisation and user levels:
- Organisation level: Sets the shared default for everyone, making it easier to access frequently used healthcare organisation records.
- User level: Lets individual staff members override the organisational setting if they need a different default view.
How It Helps
Having an effective shared record view means quick access to relevant data from other sites. Clinicians spend less time confirming basic details, and patients avoid repeating information. This improved flow of information keeps the practice up to date and supports more informed decisions.
"Configuring a default shared record view can save time each day by skipping extra clicks to open frequently accessed data from other organisations."
