Configuring signatures

Set up your electronic signature to add it to forms, prescriptions, letters, and other documents

You can add your signature in the TELUS Collaborative Health Record (CHR) to insert it into forms, prescriptions, letters, and other documents. For providers, a digital signature is required to sign encounters.

You can create e-signatures in the CHR using one of the following methods:

  • Auto-generate a signature using your first and last name.

  • Draw your signature using your mouse or cursor.

  • Upload a picture of the signature.
    💡 Tip: When uploading a signature, sign a white piece of paper using a black pen. Scan the signed paper and save it as a graphics file (.png or .jpg) so that the signature is approximately 500 pixels wide x 200 pixels high.

Steps

1. From the main menu, click Settings > Profile.

2. In the Signature section, click Update your signature.

The Update Your Signature window appears.

3. Select one of the options to configure your signature and click Update.

📌 Notes:

  • When you try to update a signature without selecting one of the three options, a No signature type selected error message appears.

  • When you upload an e-signature from an image, and you click Update without selecting a file, a No file selected error message appears.
