What is CareID?

• One software application; replaces the current Smartcard software systems i.e. Calendra,UIM & Card Management System.

• Fully electronic workflow system.• Modern intuitive design – processes are

clearer and navigation more obvious.• Use of Access Control Positions

5

Access Control Positions (ACP’s)

• A standard set of pre-authorised role codes (B Codes) to reflect the type of access and functions required not by job title (Healthcare Practitioner rather than Phlebotomist/Physiotherapist etc)

• A set of fixed access rights for your Pharmacy.

• A Person can be assigned to more than 1 ACP in order to build up the required system functions.

6

Access Control Positions continued

• Sponsors with B1300 can only assign ACP’s for their own Organisation. Sponsors must be in the ‘Sponsor ACP’ to do this.

• Assignment of an access position by a Sponsor grants the access immediately without the intervention of the RA Team.

• The activity codes in an ACP’s can be modified through a Governance process.
