NHSL Guidelines
On your mobile device go to the App Store or the Google Play Store (or the Company Portal on NHSL devices) and search for ‘Right Decisions’. Download the app and open it.
Select your options in regards to notifications (users of Apple's iOS).
Once downloaded click on ‘Get Started’. Then you should select the 'health & social care staff' option.
You then have the option to filter the content down to your organisation. Here you should select NHS Lanarkshire to only see guidelines from your health board.
You should save all NHSL toolkits under ‘My Toolkits’. Toolkits are like folders, in which documents, information and resources are saved. NHSL toolkits include:
- NHSL Guidelines
- NHSL Medical Scores & Calculators
- NHSL Medicines Guidance
- NHSL Referral Pathways
- NHSL Antimicrobial Guidelines
You will be able to find all of these with your search for NHSL or use the filter function. When you click on a toolkit you will get the option to 'Add to my toolkits'. We would recommend you do this with all NHS Lanarkshire toolkits listed above to make sure you have information relevant to NHSL at your fingertips.
To search the NHSL resources you need to click on the toolkit you would like to search (e.g. Medicines Guidance). Once you are in the toolkit, you can use the search function using keywords.
Please remember to remove the old NHSL Guidelines app from your device, if you have it installed on your device.
To access the guidelines through your desktop or laptop, go to https://rightdecisions.scot.nhs.uk/ or search for the right decisions service using a search engine. If you are only looking for resources by your health board, go to organisations and find and click on NHS Lanarkshire, or use the search function available. Once you have navigated to your organisation you can use the search function to only search NHS Lanarkshire resources as normal.
