your care dataData Protection - Registration Number: Z6257453

Under the Data Protection Act we require a patient’s written permission before we can discuss their care or treatment with family members, guardians, carers or friends. This also applies to patients aged 12-16.        

Our staff are trained in accordance with the Data Protection Act and all the staff contracts include a clause that any breaches of confidentiality may result in dismissal. You have the right to request access to your full medical records. A standard fee is chargeable for copies of your records. All requests must be put in writing to the practice.

Health care professionals who provide you with care are required by law to maintain records about your health and any treatment or care you have received within any NHS organisation.  These records help to provide you with the best possible healthcare.

NHS health records may be processed electronically, on paper or a mixture of both and through established working procedures and best practice coupled with technology we ensure your personal data is kept confidential and secure.   Your records are backed up securely in line with NHS standard procedures
