👋 Welcome to our Information Governance Homepage
Hello and welcome to Penrose Health’s new Information Governance (IG) space. This is a place where we aim to explain everything we do as an organisation with regard to IG.
But what exactly is ‘IG’? Well, IG is essentially an organisational strategy for managing data and information. This strategy allows us to ensure that we’re safely managing all the relevant data we hold (be it patient data, employee data or any other personal data we might hold).
That might sound simple (and at a high level, it is!), but in practice we need to have a multifaceted approach to IG to ensure we’re doing the right things with that data and to help us comply with all the relevant laws/regulations that might apply.
This space is designed to give you an overview of our approach to IG as well as laying out all the key details / evidence to show how we’re executing that approach and that we’re in compliance with the law. To start with, we recommend Overview of our IG strategy
We’re still building / writing this area to make sure that we cover everything we can and that our processes are ship shape. In the meantime for any gaps, please check out our IG folder in the Head Office Shared Drive or reach out to our Key People
