Why do we need information about you?

All Health and Social Care organisations that provide you with care are required by law to maintain records about your health and any treatment or care you have received.

The Practice collects and holds information for the purpose of providing healthcare services to our patients and running our organisation, which includes monitoring the quality of care and planning the care that we provide our patients.

To do this we may collect information about you which helps us:

  • respond to your queries;
  • provide you with the most appropriate care; or
  • arrange specialist services on your behalf.

We may keep your information in written form and/or in digital/electronic form. The records will include basic details about you, such as your name and address. They may also contain sensitive information about your health such as outcomes of assessments. All information about you is treated confidentially and only shared as described in this Privacy Notice.
