Any person given access to your records will be subject to a duty of confidentiality. You have a right to object to disclosure.
Referrals
When referring you to other healthcare workers the doctors will need to provide details of your medical history. The doctor will respect the wishes of any patient who objects to particular information being shared with others providing care, except where this would put others at risk of serious harm.
Research and Planning
Information about patients is requested for a wide variety of purposes including education, research, monitoring, epidemiology, public health surveillance, clinical audit and planning. Danielle Lloyd is the practice research and study co-ordinator and can be contacted at the practice Monday to Friday.
