Find, view and acknowledge a policy in My Organisation
A guide to locating and acknowledging you have read and understood your organisation's policies.
If your organisation uses Ausmed for its policies, you may be assigned policies to read and, in some cases, acknowledge. This article explains how to find, view, and acknowledge a policy in My Organisation.
Find a policy
Steps
- Click My Organisation in the top menu bar.
- Click Policy Library in the left-hand side menu. The side panel also gives you four quick views:
- All Policies — a list of all policies you have access to.
- Due Now — policies that you need to acknowledge to confirm you've read and understood them.
- Acknowledged — policies you've already acknowledged.
- Non-Mandatory — policies you have access to that don't require acknowledgement.
- To locate a specific policy:
- Enter a policy name in the search bar to narrow the list.
- Or, if your organisation has organised its policies into folders, click Folders in the side panel and browse through to find the policy. Some organisations nest folders inside other folders — keep expanding until you find the one you're after.
Tip: You can also see everything assigned to you in one place. Click Overview below the top menu bar and scroll down to Assigned Policies.
Assigned Policies won't display on the Overview page if all policies have been acknowledged, or if there are no policies to acknowledge.
View and acknowledge a policy
Steps
- Once you've located the policy in the Policy Library, click anywhere on the row, or click View or Acknowledge. Acknowledge means the policy requires acknowledgement. View means it doesn't.
- This opens the policy details page. Review the policy, including:
- The policy — a document or link containing the policy content. If it's a document, use the document tools to download or print it.
- First Created — the date the policy was first added to Ausmed.
- Updated — the date the policy was last updated.
- Additional Documents — other documents attached to the policy.
- Standards — the standards tagged to the policy.
- Topics — the topics tagged to the policy.
- If your organisation requires you to acknowledge you've read and understood the policy, scroll to the bottom of the page to locate the acknowledgement section.
- Check the acknowledgement checkbox and click Mark as Acknowledged.
