Protection and Use of Your Information

Your Records Are Safe With Us

 

We ask for information about yourself so that you can receive the best possible care and treatment. We keep this data, together with details of your care, to ensure that your doctor or nurse has accurate and up to date information. It also may be needed if we see you again.

 

We only use or pass information about you to people who have a genuine need for it. Whenever we can we shall remove details that identify you as an individual.

 

Everyone working for the NHS has a legal duty to maintain the highest level of confidentiality about patient information.

 

If at any time you would like to know more details about how we use your information you can speak to:

 

Mrs. Michele Matthee – Practice Manager on (01630) 652158
