Data Protection Privacy Notice for Patients

Patient Confidentiality

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 you the best possible care.

This information may be used for management and audit purposes. However, it is usually only available to, and used by, those involved in your care. You have the right to know what information we hold about you. If you would like to see your records please contact the Practice Manager.

Patient Charter 

As a patient of this practice, it is important that you understand this document as it states many things that sound helpful but could actually negatively impact on the services you can access.

While some of the Y&YGP is useful to give you a better understanding of how you can contact general practice, we will highlight those parts that may misinform you or build expectations that cannot be met. Patient Charter - You and Your GP (Y&YGP) document
