Over both sessions the focus will be on maintaining patient confidentiality in a busy practice setting, highlighting practical solutions to reduce the likelihood of confidentiality breaches.

Session one - 1 June 2021 (10.30 am to 12.30 pm): The first session will include disclosing and sharing of information, requirements of the DPA 2018 and regulatory guidance. Delegates will participate in breakout group discussion of case studies to demonstrate how delegates can recognise and mitigate the pitfalls associated with common practice scenarios.
Session two - 23 June 2021 (10.30 am to 12.30 pm): In this second session, delegates will learn about the key aspects of maintaining patient confidentiality within practice systems and processes. Emerging risks associated with new ways of working with patient information such as the receipt and storage of patient photographs and use of video consultations will be considered.

This course is led by MDDUS risk adviser, Kay Grant.

Upon completion, a certificate detailing four hours of verifiable CPD will be provided by MDDUS to all attendees.
