We ran an initial pilot of the service with 3 NHS Trusts in June 2024.
This pilot used a minimum viable set of features, aiming to learn from real-world usage of the service.
This page documents the design of the pilot service.

The sign-in flow used a 3rd party authentication service called Okta.

Patient details
Once found (or added), the patient details page had a ‘Choose vaccines’ button, leading to the flow for recording a vaccination.

The details of the vaccination were collected over 4 pages, followed by a ‘check and confirm’ page.
