Flexible Support Options Limited
The reason for this site accessing patient GP records is:
Care Home/Hospice/Domiciliary Care/ Residential Care using GP Connect to securely view a resident's medical records which are stored at their GP practice.
Registered clinicians (for example, nurses) can access the full medical records of residents under their care. This helps them to deliver appropriate and timely care and treatment.
Non-clinical carers (for example, the care home manager) have limited access to residents' medical history to be able to safely provide continuous care. Some information they can view includes:
- Prescribed medications
- Allergies
- Recent interactions with GP
Further queries about the reason for a patient's record being accessed should be directed to the care home manager or equivalent.
Additional Information
Data sharing limitations:
GP Connect permits the sharing of patient data only for the purpose of direct care and is only available in England.
Additional Information:
We run a Respite Care Home that deals with people's medication on a daily and rapidly-changing basis. Currently, we need to request a Summary of Care from multiple GP practices when people are coming to stay with us, and this can be a protracted process, often getting very close to the guest's arrival time. GP Connect would enable us to obtain this information in a timely manner, and deal with any discrepancies well in advance of our guest's arrival on site.
