How to complete an H2 form

Before you begin a from you must establish who the patient if that you are creating the form for. There are two ways to do this, you can either search for a patient or go to the patient from your caseload. Please see our help guide on how to do this here.

Once you are on the patient, you can select the type of form you want to complete. For an H2 form, click the start form button next to Hospital Forms.

If you will be completing the form, click ‘start new form’ and start typing H2 in to the select form box.

You will then be able to click H2, and be able to click the ‘start form’ button.

If there is already an H2 form in progress for this patient, you will be asked if you would like to start a new one or continue the current form.

Complete the form as you would complete the paper form, by either selecting the correct option or entering text into the boxes.

Once you have completed the form you can click ‘review’. You will then be able to review the form in the pink MHA format. If you notice any mistakes, press ‘go back’ to edit the form.

If you are happy with the form, click sign. You can then enter your saved signature, draw your signature or upload one. Confirm that the signature will be the electronic representation of your signature by checking the box and then click 'confirm'.

You can then enter the name of the person or team you would like to send the form to and you can select it from the dropdown list.

You can then click send.

The form will appear in your caseload and the team caseload until legal scrutiny has been marked as complete. It will then more to the archive.
