confidentiality

There are six areas of information Governance:

· Common law duty of confidentiality

· Data Protection

· Information Security

· Record Management

· Data Quality

All employees are bound by the Common Law Duty of Confidentiality, placing a legal duty on all staff working for the Clinic to keep all information provided to the Clinic and themselves as employees of the Clinic by its patients completely confidential. This legal obligation is further enforced in your contract with the Clinic.

All staff have a legal obligation to ensure that any confidential information they come into contact with is kept secure and confidential at all times. Where a member of staff receives a request for information relating to an individual, staff must ensure that any disclosure of confidential information is fully justified and in compliance with the Data Protection Act 2018 or Common Law Duty of Confidentiality.

All Pathology Services staff undertake annual mandatory Information Governance Training to ensure they are familiar with the legislation and Clinic and departmental policies.

Where necessary the laboratory will have information available for patients and users that includes an explanation of the clinical procedure to be performed to enable informed consent.
