Smartcards

An NHS smartcard is needed to access most NHS clinical software.  Dorset Registration Authorities (RA) Function is run by NHS Dorset.

Once a Smartcard has been issued, that Smartcard should only be used by the individual it has been issued to, and only for the functions issued to that person. Never leave the Smartcard logged in on an unattended machine.
