SmartCare allows you to block a user from viewing a client’s chart. This is often done when a client has a family member or friend who works in Behavioral Health. This is done in the Staff Details screen per user who needs to be blocked. There is some functionality elsewhere in the system where the client themselves can request their chart be sequestered from a specific staff member or members. This includes the Coordinated Care Consent document.

This staff member will now not see this client in any client searches they do. You may have to refresh tables and/or have the staff member log out and log back in to have the change enacted. See How to Refresh Shared Tables for more information.
