Enrol a Patient
Patient enrolment involves entering patient demographics and assigning the appropriate programmes to a patient.
Depending on the programme(s) selected, entering medical information and/or personalising the monitoring or treatment plans may be required.
When patient enrolment is completed, an invitation email will be sent to the patient to download and log in to their Viso app.
There are 2 ways to enrol a patient on Viso.
1. Send a sign-up link to your patient. This link is available at the top of the Enrolment page.
2. Enrol the patient using the Viso Dashboard
- Independent of the registration method used, to access Viso, patients must use NHS login. NHS login is a single secure login that enables your patient to swiftly access multiple health and social care apps and websites wherever there is the NHS login button.
- NHS supports shared or ‘proxy’ accounts, but Viso does not. If there is a carer that logs in to NHS on behalf of the patient, and this patient has no personal NHS Login details, then this patient will not be able to use Viso.
- The NHS requires patients to have a high level of identity verification associated to their NHS login account to use services like Viso.
Send the sign-up link to your patient
A common enrolment link that can be used by the whole practice is found on the enrolment page. Send this link to the patient(s) you want to enrol. Once they complete the sign-up form, if all of the patient information can be verified, they will be added into the Hypertension Plus Monitoring-Only Programme. If the patient information cannot be verified, you will be asked to complete the enrolment (see Complete Enrolment). Once you have completed the enrolment, patients will receive a confirmation email and will be able to use the Viso app.
Enrol the patient using the Viso Dashboard
You can enrol one patient at a time following the steps below.
- Please obtain patient approval before adding their information into Viso.
- Log in to Viso as an HCP Approver or HCP Non-Approver.
- Click [Enrolment].
- Click [Enrol Patient].
- Fill in the form and click [Continue].
- The Patient Name entered in this dialogue is for reference the during registration process only and will be replaced with the patient’s full name as registered in the medical record, after information retrieval from the medical record is complete.
- After adding the patient, the patient will be added to the "Incomplete Enrolment" list with the status "Waiting for medical record".
- After your patient’s confirmation, the programme will have safe access to the information in the Medical Record.
