PKB delivers training to each of it's sites in many different forms; group training members of the team together, one-to-one training either in person or virtually via screensharescreen share, or even a "by a Org Trainer using the train the trainer " approach as has been adopted by some of our larger deployments.
These training sessions nearly always begin with a run-through of the patient account record before moving on to focus on the specific role(s) those being trained will be responsible for. There is often a lot of material covered in a short period of time, and although we allow plenty of time for questions it is always useful to have something to refer back to.
PKB has standard post-training email templates to be tailored to each session referencing what has been covered and sign-posting useful pages in our help documentation, as well as the next steps for the project and the test site details for the teams to practice with.

Post-Training Email
Dear [name],
It was my pleasure to speak with you today and take you on a tour of Patients Know Best (PKB). We went through the [patient/professional/coordinator] portal[s] giving you a small insight into what it can do.
Here is the link to the Patients Know Best website, there is a short video through the patient's portal which would be worth you viewing.
As we discussed, the logins for the [team] test site are as follows:
First click on this link: https://sandbox.patientsknowbest.com/
Patient : [username] [password]
Professional : [username] [password]
Coordinator : [username] [password]
Please note that you can only have one session of PKB logged in at one time so you will need to log out of one role before logging into another.
Remember this is a test site so feel free to 'play' and add stuff - this is the best way to learn and you can't break it! Ideally, if you can think of a scenario/case that you can work through as a team on the test patients Here is a link to our Help Manual; this is P ‘'s online wiki with useful aids when you can't quite remember how to do something or if you need technical help. You can click on 'professional/coordinator' for tasks you will n’ records that would be great, you will really get a feel for how it will work for you and your patients. However, please don't add any genuine demographic or medical information to the site as it can be seen by other professionals who are also using the site to practice in the same way as you.
Below are the key features I think the team should practice on before you start working with your patients on PKB:
Complete the Health section of a patient's record
Send a consultation

Please do not hesitate to contact me anytime if you have questions or need further assistance.
Best wishes,
[PKB Success Trainers name]

Coordinators' email message
It was great to be able to go through the coordinator training with you yesterday.
I am sending you this email just to briefly recap, this is what we covered in our session so that you can understand the features that your team will be using. We covered lots but the highlighted features are the key features covered
Invite a patient to join your institution
Create a personal health plan template or use HTML in a care plan template
Deactivate a clinician's account once they have left your team
You already have the test account coordinator details but I have enclosed them again as a reminder
First click on this link: http://sandbox.patientsknowbest.com
For the Coordinator enter:
[username]
[password]
Please don't add any genuine demographic or medical information to the site as it can be seen by other professionals at other institutions who are also using the site to practice in the same way as you. Also, whilst logged in as a coordinator, you should feel free to open and look at any care plans or surveys and library links, please don't delete or alter them as these are working documents for other departments. Looking at them is helpful to give you an idea of what we could put on the site for your team
