Resources for staff
Here are a few tools that you might find helpful:
Get Started
During your time at UCLA Health, you will utilize several UCLA Health systems and applications. When working onsite, you will have computers available for use with pre-installed applications that are secure and connected to the UCLA Health network.
By completing the following steps, you will be able to access training, files, and applications securely and safely.
DUO for Multi-Factor Authentication adds extra security by asking you for another piece of information via your cell phone, tablet or land line.

Off Site and away from UCLA Health Secure Wi-Fi: If you are not connected to the UCLA Health network, call Customer Care at 310-267-CARE (2273) before attempting to create a Mednet password, enroll in coursework or log into Mednet email because DUO must be established first. Specialists are available 24/7 to enroll you in Duo. Please be aware that Customer Care Specialists will confirm your identity prior to enrolling you into Duo.
On UCLA Health Network or connected to UCLA Health Secure Wi-Fi: If you are connected through the UCLA Health network, you can self-enroll into Duo and manage your device(s) through the Multi-Factor Authentication Self Enrollment Portal.
Note: On Network means that you are connected to UCLA Health Secure Wi-Fi, using a computer workstation physically connected at a UCLA Health facility, or connected by Global Protect VPN when offsite.
You need to change your password for Mednet account from the temporary password provided to you.
Note: You must be enrolled into Duo prior to changing your password.
