CARE HOME SERVICE

Privacy Policy

Primary Care Sheffield runs a weekly planned GP ward round service of three nursing homes on behalf of their patients’ registered practices. This service does not affect residents of care homes who are registered with one of our managed GP practices; all registered patients of our GP practices, including those resident in care homes, are subject to information detailed on page 5.  This service applies to the residents of:

  • The Glen Nursing Home, 224 Abbeydale Road South, Sheffield S17 3LA
  • Broomcroft House Care Home, 414 Ecclesfield Road South, Sheffield S11 9PY
  • Chatsworth Grange Nursing Home, 2 Hollybank Road, Sheffield S12 2BX

The information we hold

We have a Data Sharing Agreement in place with your registered GP which provides our staff with access to your GP record and allows us to record information directly into this record. We do not hold information outside your GP record and your registered GP sets the data protection around that record.

Additional Information Sharing from our GP practices

Your registered GP will share information in line with those mentioned in their own privacy notice / fair processing notice which will be available on their website. We will not share your personal data and only present aggregated or anonymised data from this service for the purpose of contract monitoring with the commissioner.

Data Retention

We do not act as the Data Controller for this record, do not hold copies and do not therefore retain information separate from your GP record. We hold and use this information only whilst we are consulting with you and operate under a data sharing agreement with your registered practice to access this information.
