There are now just 24 days until the commencement of the EMR Phase 2.1 Go-Live on Sunday 9 July.

As we continue our countdown to the Go-Live, please find attached Number 4 in the Nursing & Midwifery Top 10 – Welcome to Tracking Boards.  EMR Phase 2.1 will see the introduction of Tracking Boards which provide real-time updates on bed availability, patient statuses and the progress of specific care tasks.

It’s great to see the series displayed across the EMR sites as we count down to the Go-Live. If you are missing printed copies of any of these Top 10 posters please contact Kylee Ross – Kylee.Ross@wh.org.au

A huge thanks to our wonderful Nursing & Midwifery EMR Super User Team.  Over the course of this week our Super Users will be attending a Super User Go-Live Launch Event where they will go through some important pre Go-Live information, collect their blue Super User polo top and be thanked for their enormous contribution to the project.  Our Super Users now all have their EMR practice environment logins, and will share them with you when you’ve completed your EMR Phase 2.1 training and are ready to practice using the EMR and the new workflows.

A reminder:

EMR Phase 2.1 training is available online via WeLearn  

A WeLearn package does not need to be completed in the one session, it will save as you progress through and can be returned to at a later time.  A package can also be completed a second time, or more, to further enhance understanding.

If you work across different specialties there may be multiple WeLearn packages relevant to you.  If you have any queries regarding which package to complete please contact – WHS-EMRTrainers@wh.org.au

For those staff who require additional support after their WeLearn training, optional in-person nursing & midwifery classroom training sessions are available until Friday 30th June.

Staff who prefer classroom training are also welcome to book into one of these in-person classroom training sessions.  Please check with your manager before booking in and book early to secure your preferred day and time.  A guide stepping through how to book one of these sessions is attached.

If you have any EMR Phase 2.1 queries, please do not hesitate to contact:

Thank you all for your continued support. By working together, we can ensure that not only is the Go-Live successful, but that nurses and midwives thrive using the enhanced EMR functionality.
