Confidentiality and medical records

How we protect patient confidentiality and manage medical records.

Everyone working for the NHS has a legal duty to keep information about you confidential. We only share information with other NHS staff who need it to provide your care, or where we are required to by law.

Your medical records are held securely and access is limited to authorised staff.
