There are two ways to add your team to Anima.

  2. Fill in their first name, surname, NHS email and role and click 'Send invitation'

If you don’t get an email, reach out to Anima support and we can finish the setup process for you.


Option 2

Step 1: Open Anima and choose standard login

  1. Open Anima (web or desktop).

    Note: Save to record is only available in the desktop app.

  2. Click Go to standard login.

    • You can link your Smartcard later in Settings, after your account is created.


Step 2: Create your account

  2. Enter your details and submit the form.


Step 3: Verify your email

  2. Click Return to login page.

  3. Click Login as existing user.

  4. Sign in using the email and password you just created.


Step 5: Link your account to your surgery

After logging in, you’ll be prompted to complete a short form to link your account to your organisation (surgery).

Fill this in and submit.


If you see an error when linking to your surgery

'The profile you are trying to access is inactive.'

This usually means your profile has not been activated.
