West Berkshire Council
The reason for this site accessing patient GP records is:
A shared care record provides health and care staff with a selected view of the patient information held within different local health and care settings.
Where a shared care record has used GP Connect an up-to-date view of the medical record held at the patients' registered GP has been provided. The shared care record user can access information such as the list of current and historical GP prescribed medications, recorded allergies and a record of recent GP encounters – alongside data from other sources such as local hospital trust and social care systems.
