How to transfer a record

Once you have entered the data for a patient, you can transfer the record in Section 7 of the dataset. 

First, select in 7.1 the correct response for the patient. If the patient died, was discharged, or was transferred to a team that is not participating in SSNAP, you will not require the next step.

If the patient was transferred to 'another inpatient care team' or 'to an ESD/Community team' then question 7.1.3 will become available.

You can select the team that the patient was transferred to in the dropdown list. You can either scroll through the list, or you can start typing the team name/code.

Tip: If you want to type only the team code, put a bracket before the code if it is an inpatient team, and they will appear straight away, for example: (999

Once you have selected the team, and you have completed all of the necessary information in the dataset, you will have the option to transfer the patient.
