The Practice complies with data protection, access to medical records legislation and GDPR. Identifiable information about you will be shared with others in the following circumstances:
- To provide further medical treatment for you e.g. from District Nurses and hospital services.
- To help you get other services e.g. from the social work department, however this will require your consent.
- When we have a duty to others e.g. in child protection cases anonymised patient information will also be used at local and national level to help the Health Board and Government plan services e.g. for diabetic care.
If you wish to opt out from sharing your data, please let the practice know.
Our reception and administration staff require access to medical records, to be able to assist patients in any queries. All members of staff are bound by the same rules of confidentiality as the medical staff.
