Patient confidentiality

You have a right to privacy and we respect this.

We keep all your health information confidential and secure. It is important that the NHS keeps accurate and up-to-date records about your health and treatment. This means those treating you can give you the best possible care.

This information may be used for management and audit purposes. It is usually only available to, and used by, those involved in your care.

You have the right to know what information we hold about you. You can have access to your medical record through the NHS app, or you may wish to make a Subject Access Request (SAR). Contact us to request a form.
