  • Deactivating a UAMS Health Provider Profile

When a UAMS Health provider leaves the employment of UAMS, their profile needs to be deactivated. To do this, set their profile to Inactive.

Setting a profile to Inactive prevents the provider’s profile from appearing to the public, including all pages like the provider list, location profiles, etc.

Steps to set a provider to Inactive

  1. Log in to the website and go to Providers in the dashboard menu.
  2. Find the provider’s profile and open it for editing. You can search by name.
  3. In the upper right corner of the editor, find the Publish box. Near the top of the box, you will see the line Status: Published followed by an Edit link.
  4. Select Edit next to the status. A dropdown menu appears.
  5. In the dropdown, select Inactive.
  6. Select the OK button next to the dropdown. The status line now reads Status: Inactive.
  7. Select the blue Update button at the bottom of the Publish box to save your changes.

What to expect after you save

The profile still exists on the website, but it is hidden from the public.

  • Visitors who are not logged in can’t see the provider’s profile page.
  • The provider no longer appears in the provider list, on location pages, etc.
  • You can still find and edit the profile in the dashboard when you are logged in.
