As the person is already known to RIVIAM, only three sections of the form will need to be completed.

  1. The Contact/referrer details.
  2. Triage.
  3. Outcomes.

Complete all the sections on the form and select 'Submit Referral'.

A pop-up will appear confirming that the form has been submitted successfully and give a referral reference code. For example:

The new referral will be routed to the appropriate service provider (pod). Users assigned to the pod will receive an email notification that a new referral has been received.

The new referral will be listed if the user uses the People Search.
