The Techie Guide for the Non-Techie User

Welcome to our technology support page, where you will find latest reminders and ongoing guidance.  

We use technology daily for completion of various tasks, such as email correspondence and working in electronic health records. This page is dedicated to helping you work successfully with focus on the use of technology and policies that govern it.

Remember, the Three Keys to workplace success are: Care, Maintenance, and Prevention (C.M.P.).  

Outlook

Reminder #2: Outlook email is not encrypted. When emailing in Outlook, please take all precautions to protect our clients’ Personal and Identifiable Health Information. Only state the client’s chart # number in your email. Otherwise, it is better to correspond in Echo about clients.  

Reminder #3: When sending attachments, please make sure to password protect the document you are attaching and send two separate emails. The first email should only provide the password to the protected document you are about to send and advise the recipient that they will receive a separate email with an attached document. The second email can provide the password protected attachment. Doing this will prevent from the attached document containing clients’ PHI from being compromised.
