If you are adding a new client record, you must have consent before the record can be added. To confirm you have obtained the signed consent form, tick the box.

 


Entering Client Details

The next step is to edit the record, which allows you to complete the new vulnerable person record. Please consult the Protocols for a description on the fields, along with your requirements relating to the management of the new record.

  2. Verified - the record has been checked for accuracy by the agency

Revalidating Clients

Clients require re-verification from time to time in order to ensure the data is kept accurate. This process will typically be required twice a year and typically occurs in  April and October.

Removing has two meanings in the VPR:

  1. This client is still vulnerable but is no longer receiving services from your agency. Here you are removing the relationship between you and the client. This is known as "unlinking".
  2. This client is no longer vulnerable. Here removing a client will remove it from the system altogether.

1) Navigate to the Client screen and click Edit.
