Confidentiality for non-clinical staff in primary care

Taking place on Thursday, 27 March, between 1.30pm and 4.30pm, this interactive course is designed for admin and reception staff in primary care

This course will cover topics including disclosing and sharing of patient information, requirements of the DPA 2018 and regulatory guidance.

We will also discuss key aspects of maintaining patient confidentiality within practice systems and processes and the emerging risks associated with new ways of working with patient information such as the receipt and storage of patient photographs.

Delegates will participate in breakout group discussion of case studies to demonstrate how delegates can recognise and mitigate the pitfalls associated with common practice scenarios. 

This course is led by MDDUS risk adviser, Kay Grant.

Upon completion, a certificate detailing four hours of verifiable CPD will be provided by MDDUS to all attendees.
