πŸ“Œ Note: this process slightly differs from the referral process that GPs and practice staff will complete when referring a patient to your service. It is a quicker process so that you can easily transfer the patients onto the Joy system and start using Joy immediately!

Ensure you have 'Social prescribing' (shown below) in the external views panel on the left side panel of EMIS before completing this process. If you cannot see it please contact [email protected]

  1. Open up EMIS

  2. Select and open up a patient πŸ‘‡ that you want to transfer to Joy

  3. Select 'Social Prescribing' πŸ‘‡ from the external views on the bottom left of EMIS (you may need to open the sidebar by clicking on the vertical β€˜view my record bar’)
