Guide to using the Portal

Welcome to MyCareCorner, your personal portal to your health record. We created this simple, yet comprehensive guide to help you navigate through your new portal.

While you may see some differences compared to what you are used to, your new portal offers an enhanced experience and ability to effectively manage your health with your provider.

The information in this guide can be downloaded as a PDF and printed for your convenience.

What is MyCareCorner?

Cary Medical Center’s MyCareCorner is an online health electronic document management tool that includes a view of clinical data from your Electronic Medical Record (EMR).

The clinical data on MyCareCorner includes:

  • Test results
  • Medications
  • Allergies
  • Immunizations
  • Health Issues

 

How do I access MyCareCorner?

If you are interested in signing up for the patient portal, please provide an email at time of registration at your next visit to Cary Medical Center to receive an email invitation from the hospital to sign up for MyCareCorner.
