Microsoft Teams is being provided to staff to facilitate team interactions, working with other departments and for the sharing of information collectively as an organisation.

 

Teams is the little purple icon     that’s either on your desktop or on your task bar (the grey area at the bottom of your screen).

 

To open Teams double click on the icon.  Teams may be set to open as soon as you log on. The first time you login you will be presented with this set up screen. 


 


The field will be automatically be prefilled with your windows ID. You need to change this to your NHS.Net email address and then click ‘Sign in’.  The NHS Microsoft Teams dialogue box will open.

 

 


Enter your NHSmail Password and click ‘Sign in’.

 

Once logged in you will see a page that looks something like the one shown below.  Most of us will be assigned to at least one Team, most will have access to several, so the opening screen might be the last Team you were in or one of the other functions.
