To manage teams in Cortex, login to your Cortex Web admin instance via a web browser
If your account has permission to manage Teams, on the left navigation, you'll see "Teams" under the "Administration" section. Click this link.
Adding a Team
To create a new team, click the "New" button on the right hand side.
- You will need to have obtained the Employee Number of the relevant clinician / team
- Enter name of the relevant clinician / team (note that this may not necessarily be an individual, for example 'GM7' is an admitting team'
- Select the relevant Department
- Choose "Attending Doctor ID Number'" and put the Employee Number in box "is equal to"
- In lower section choose "Attending Doctor Name Type Code" and enter "PICS" in "is equal to" box
- Leave the box at the bottom all empty
The screen should look as per below:
NOTES:
- Adding a new admitting team to Cortex does not retrospectively allocate patients to that team (i.e. patients already admitted in SIPICS will not automatically update under that team).
- If this is needed, search for the patient in the Cortex web admin, "Edit" the patient, and select the team to allocate them to.
