PRIMHD Training at Hanmer Clinic in Tauranga

 

On the 04 October Belinda Walker trained 10 people from Hanmer Clinic and also the Midland Administrator, Akatu Marsters to use PRIMHD online. 

On arrival we were greeted with a warm welcome and morning tea, this gave us an opportunity to meet and mingle with staff prior to the training session.

There were some nerves in the room as computers are not everyone’s best friends and some even commented “I am still trying to get the hang of MEDTECH”.  Belinda assured everyone that PRIMHD online is straightforward and that the main thing to remember is, the capturing of data is not about the service but about the clients journey and understanding the use of the codes. 

We went through some scenario’s which everyone came out with an A+ and by the end of the session everyone one felt competent and couldn’t believe how quickly they grasped PRIMHD online, maybe it could be the result of a excellent trainer.
