Welcome to the My Health Record learning pathway for healthcare providers and organisations supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
My Health Record is an important tool that can help improve the way health information is shared and used. For healthcare workers, it can support safer, more connected care, especially when working across different services, locations and teams.
This learning pathway has been designed to build your understanding step by step, so you can feel confident using My Health Record in your practice and within your organisation.
Module 1, introduction to My Health Record, is designed for everyone working in an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health service across a range of roles, including health professionals, admin staff and management.
At the end of this module, you will be able to:
- explain what My Health Record is and the key health information it holds
- outline how consumers and healthcare providers interact with the system
- recognise how My Health Record may support better healthcare for consumers, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health services and community
- identify how to gain access to the My Health Record system.
