CONFIDENTIALITY
Anyone undertaking a Work Placement in the Countess of Chester
Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is likely to become aware of, and have
access to, confidential information about patients, staff, members of
the public and health service business.
The very fact that a person is receiving treatment or attending for a
consultation is itself a confidential matter and he/she has the right
to expect that their privacy is protected.
On no account, therefore, must any information relating to
identifiable individuals be divulged to anyone other than authorised
persons e.g. medical, nursing or other professional staff as
appropriate, who are concerned directly with the care, diagnosis and /
or treatment of the patient.
If you are in any doubt as to the authority of a person or body asking
for information of this nature, you must seek advice from the senior
person on the ward or the department to which you are attached.
Any breach of this obligation to observe confidentiality and Data
Protection will result in immediate termination of your Work
