Confidentiality

The practice complies with the Data Protection Act 1998, we respect your right to privacy and keep all your health information confidential and secure.
It is important that the NHS keeps accurate and up-to date records about your health and treatment so that those treating you can give the best possible advice and care. This information is only available to those involved in your care.

The practice aims to treat our patients courteously at all times and expect our patients to treat our staff in a similarly respectful way.  We take seriously any threatening, abusive or violent behaviour against any of our staff or patients.

If a patient is violent or abusive, they will be warned to stop their behaviour. If they persist, we may exercise our right to take action to have them removed, immediately if necessary, from our list of patients.
