Speakers

Mr Matt Dimond

Information Governance allows organisations and individuals to ensure that personal information is handled legally, securely, efficiently and effectively, in order to deliver the best possible care.  Information Governance applies to everyone who handles personal or patient identifiable information.

This topic applies to virtually all staff in every practice.  You must ensure that staff are aware of their responsibilities, best practice when handling all forms of data sources, both electronic and manual, and what a breach of their responsibilities could result in.

Content will include:  What is Information Governance?  What legal acts do you need to be aware of? Caldicott, Data Protection Act, Computer Misuse Act, patient requests, subject access requests, freedom of information, access to medical records, confidentiality, security and everyday scenarios.
