PCIT Updates
💉 Don’t forget about the Routine Childhood Imms changes!
Don’t forget, the latest changes to the Routine Childhood Immunisations schedule go live 1st January 2025. As mentioned last month our resources are being updated ready for that change. There has also been a recent webinar by UKHSA all about the planned changes and the recording is now available here: UKHSA webinar: changes to the routine childhood immunisation schedule from 1 January 2026
🚨 Don’t forget that QRISK 3 is available for PCIT customers* to be able to use within EMIS Web!
This year we released our calculator which means clinicians will be able to calculate a QRISK3 score within a clinical system with the result being recorded directly in the record.
This functionality has been built into:
🔵 OneCalculator
🔵 Lipid checking protocol (HP015)
🔵 OneTemplate NonPrescriber in the NHS Health Check page (for those eligible)
Primary Care IT would like to again thank Dr David Stables for input during our development of this important tool.

⚙️ Optional Handy Protocol Change (Reminder)
We have made a change to the way we offer our Handy Protocols to practices. Sites can now access the full list of optional HPs by going to Resource Publisher > Shared Folders > Primary Care IT Limited > (3A) Published Global Resources > Handy Protocols > Optional and choose which ones they want to move from inactive to active (therefore setting them as a live resource). Our Handy Protocols come with pre-set triggers but you can adjust locally as required.
📚 For further details on our Handy Protocols, read our support guide below.

Resource Releases & Updates
📊 New OneAnalytics Platform
We have launched our new OneAnalytics portal! What’s new: A modern user interface with improved performance and usability, stronger Security though Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and Local access management for faster updates and improved control.
As part of the launch of the new platform, your organisation will now manage its own user access directly. You should have now been contacted if you have been identified as the designated Organisation Administrator for this platform.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) will now be enforced for all users. Please note: Generic logins are no longer supported.
If your contract includes OneAnalytics but you are yet to be contacted, this means we’re finalising discussions with your area to ensure IG materials (i.e. DPA/DPIAs) are updated and accurate to cover additional functionality added.
For further details and support on using the platform, please see our Knowledge Base.
