My Care

My Care gives you greater control over your healthcare by providing you with personalised and secure online access to specific parts of your medical records.

Through My Care you can access information like your medications, appointments and some test results.

It is free to use, and it is optional. You can continue interacting with healthcare services via traditional methods – letters, phone calls, etc.

For information to be accessible to a patient it must first be inputted into the encompass system.

SEHSCT will be the first Trust to start using the encompass system in November 23. Members of the public interacting with SEHSCT services will be able to access information on their patient record.

Patients accessing services in other Trusts will not have information available on My Care until that Trust begins using encompass.
