If you go up to [the top of this topic](https://ehealthforum.nz/t/entry-for-nurses-into-health-informatics-discussion-thursday-2nd-feb-12pm/27341) (you can simply click on the title too) you will get the Event:

The 📅 `Add to Calendar` is pretty good, and you can RSVP by clicking on ✔`Attending` (it goes turquoise when you are registered as attending).

We’ll have a super slick integration sometime soon so that you can simply subscribe once to the eHealth Forum calendar (either all or just those you RSVP ‘yes’ to) and get it automagically in your email calendar.

This one may be useful. It’s a matrix that a person can map themselves into [https://digitalhealthcanada.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Career-Matrix-One-Page-vDEC16-2019.pdf](https://digitalhealthcanada.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Career-Matrix-One-Page-vDEC16-2019.pdf)

Morena  
Looking forward to the meeting tomorrow at midday.  
It will be recorded, but can someone please volunteer to perhaps take some notes/bullet points? Ideally, directly into this forum would be ideal.  
Thanks  
Emma

Morena everyone. @NathanK might be busy in theatre today, so I thought I would make myself available.

I am a physiotherapist in Northland and part of the Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) team. If anyone has any trouble getting onto the Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) meeting (pinned to the top of this thread) you can call me on: 0275 344 227.

I will be using this Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) room if someone has any problems: [https://zui.nz/sandpit](https://zui.nz/sandpit)

I am actually in [https://zui.nz/sandpit](https://zui.nz/sandpit) right now, and until 12.15pm if anyone wants to jump in and test that your camera/mic is working etc.

While I am waiting I will pop in a couple of screen shots to show you what Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) looks like so you can navigate easily - post coming soon…

Hi again.

When you first click the link you should end up in the lobby (1).

Make sure you “allow” Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) to access your camera and mic.

2: Type in your name.  
3. Turn on camera and microphone. See the little “up arrows” - that might help you if there are other devices connected to your camera and microphone.  
4. Join the meeting…

 ![image](https://ehealthforum.nz/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a4a9c33917dbd74cf57b1acfb88ce44365d4ce7f.jpeg)

Once you join the meeting you should see this:

1. Tool bar with the usual things: mic; camera; screen sharing; chat; raise your hand; invite people; gallery /solo view
2. More options - this is where you can record the session to your local computer, and also enable other security options such as locking the lobby, so that someone has to knock to enter.

 ![image](https://ehealthforum.nz/uploads/default/original/2X/0/097c7c09ab4686e82ca8d875569f38e7bb790d05.jpeg)

Good luck. Remember - call me on 0275 344 227 if you need any help.

PS - most common problems you might encounter are:

1. If joining from an organization with a firewall - they may not approve the [zui.nz](http://zui.nz) website. You may have to use your phone or another internet source (e.g. phone hotspot) to join.
2. If using mobile - make sure you “allow” Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) to access your camera or mic

Hello @Yeok.  
Nathan held a Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) last week with about 15 people and I understand 2 people from a DHB could not access it. He advised them to use an alternate internet source to get in - e.g. hotspot from a phone. I know this does not sound ideal and is a trade off for using a browser based video system if it is new to people.  
EDIT - if coming in via phone - try turning off the WIFI which may be blocking Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface).  
Kate - drop me a call on 0275 344 227 for a quick talk about options.

@Yeok For future use ask them to add it their ‘white list’ of approved sites.  
For now go with the mobile idea 🙂

Ok - I am leaving the sandpit now. I hear from Nathan and Emma that the meeting is going well.

Sorry @Yeok that you had trouble today. I talked to Jon just now he said turning off the WIFI worked to get around the firewall for him on his phone. But we could have prepped a bit better regarding these issues.

I have been meaning to write a post on where Z[UI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface) came from - and I will.

But in a nutshell it was built as a community project last year in the initial Omicron outbreak. I was part of the Hikurangi Covid Response and we were supporting people in their homes with kai, RAT tests, medication deliveries, pulse oximeters and the like, and we wanted to use video for follow ups to check on people, maybe reassess their RAT test technique, or how they were using the oximeter.

Other options we were using required logging in, downloading software, or using social media tools. Or there was a time limit. So we wanted to create something that could be shared as a link via SMS - perhaps right there at someones doorstep on the first meeting, make sure it worked, and then use that to connect via video as they recovered.

I will write a full post on this another time soon. Cheers, Ben.

Kia Ora and thanks for the great discussion in todays meeting.  
In my 10 year quest in Plunket to progress to a digital health role I took up every opportunity to be known internally. I had planned to complete the PG Cert in health Sciences, or even the PG cert in IT, but wasn’t ready to commit to losing my income to study.  
To better position myself I did a couple of these online training courses, from the HINZ website.  
[https://www.hinz.org.nz/page/OnlineCourses](https://www.hinz.org.nz/page/OnlineCourses)  
These were not formal qualifications, but solidified my knowledge & interest to know I was heading in the right direction, and showed initiative and learning outside the box, which would have helped me to get my new role as Business Analyst at Plunket.  
My role will largely be planning improvements for systems and processes within Plunket (mostly in the digital space), which will influence practice, so I am hoping to maintain my APC, even though it not a nursing role.
