Working with other NHS services involved in your care:

Sharing your medical record

The electronic record system that East Coast Community Healthcare uses, allows us to share your medical records with those in the NHS who are involved in your care. At your first clinical contact you will be asked for permission for us to continue doing this. You can retract this permission at any time and we will stop sharing your record.

We ONLY share the record with other NHS services that you have agreed can view it.

For example:

  • If you give your GP consent to share your information and view the shared information.
  • You then give the District Nurse consent to share your information and view the shared information.
  • You give the Smoking Clinic consent to share your information, however NOT to view the shared information

This would mean that:

  • Your GP is able to view the information shared by the District Nurse and the Smoking Clinic.
  • The District Nurse is able to view the information shared by your GP and the Smoking Clinic.
  • However the Smoking Clinic is only able to share and view their own information, they cannot see anything that the GP or District Nurse have shared.

We will NEVER share with insurance companies, banks, the DVLA, without your written consent or, in very exceptional circumstances, a court order.
