How to complete the Discharge Hub Referral form

What is it?
  • The Discharge Hub Referral form has been added to eRecord to replace the current word document.
  • As it is created from a patient record, this will improve data quality of referrals received into the hub.
  • As it is created in the patient record it will improve the accessibility of the form and the time it takes to complete for ward staff.
