Everyone that works with the NHS is responsible for keeping information appropriately secure and confidential. IG is an organisational strategy that helps us to ensure that we’re managing all the relevant data we hold (be it patient data, employee data or any other personal data) in a way that is safe, secure and confidential.
At Penrose Health, we’ve put together a whole IG Homepage to help you understand more about our approach to IG, talk you through our whole IG framework, and give you the key detailed policies including how all our employees should act with regard to IG.
