Privacy Statement

The Condition Management Company processes information about you in order to provide health care services, and in doing so has to comply with the requirements of the Data Protection Act (DPA) 2018. This means that data held about you must only be used for specific purposes as defined by law. This Privacy Statement has been created to inform you about the types of information held about you, why that information is held about you, and to whom that information may be shared.

Why we collect information about you:

Your clinical care team and other health and care professionals caring for you keep records about your health and any treatment and care you receive from the service. These help ensure that you receive the best possible care from us. They may be written down (manual records), or held on a computer. The records may include:

  • Basic information about you, such as name, address, date of birth, NHS number and GP details,

  • Contacts we have had with you, such as treatment sessions

  • Notes and reports about your health and any treatment and care you need such as referral to another service,

  • Details and records about the treatment and care you receive,

  • Relevant information from other health and social care professionals, local authorities, voluntary organisations, relatives or those who care for you and know you well.

How your personal information is used:

Your records are used to direct, manage and deliver the care you receive to ensure that:

  • The clinical care team and other healthcare professionals involved in your care have accurate and up to date information to assess your health and decide on the most appropriate care for you,

  • The clinical care team and other healthcare professionals have the information they need to be able to assess and improve the quality and type of care you receive,

  • Your concerns can be properly investigated if a complaint is raised,

  • Appropriate information is available if you see another member of the clinical care team, or are referred to another service with your consent

How your records are used to help The Condition Management Company:

  • Review the care we provide to ensure it is of the highest standard and quality.

  • Ensure our services can meet service user needs in the future.

  • Investigate service users’ queries, complaints and legal claims.

  • Prepare statistics on the Company’s performance.

  • Audit Company accounts and services.

  • Helping to train and educate healthcare professionals.

Some of this information is held centrally within the Company, but where this is used for statistical purposes stringent measures are taken to ensure that individual service users cannot be identified. Anonymous statistical information may also be passed to organisations with a legitimate interest, including Universities and Research Institutions.

Where it is not possible to use anonymised information, personally identifiable information may be used for essential The Condition Management Company purposes. They may include research and auditing services. This will only be done with your consent, unless the law requires information to be passed on to improve public health.

How we keep your records confidential and secure:

You may be receiving other types of care from other organisations as well as The Condition Management Company e.g. Social Services and the Voluntary Sector.

We will only ever use or pass on information about you if others involved in your care have a genuine need for it. When we pass on any information, we will ensure it is kept confidential and secure.

Anyone who receives information from us is also under a legal duty to keep it confidential and secure.

We are required by law to report certain information to the appropriate authorities. This is only provided after a qualified health professional, as defined under the Data Protection Act 1998 has given formal permission. Occasions when we must pass on information may include:
