Free, expert support for new care services on data protection and cyber security including training, template policies and a checklist of issues to consider.
As a new care provider, you’re going to store and share a lot of sensitive and valuable information about your clients, staff and business. That could include paper or digital health and care records, staff records, bank details and contracts.
This guide can help you to plan how you will manage your information. It includes a free checklist of issues a new care service should consider, and it signposts you to our free resources and template.
You can also access free support from our Better Security, Better Care team. We can help you to complete the Data Security Protection Toolkit (DSPT) – the free self-assessment tool covering all the data protection and cyber security issues you need to consider. It’s the official government-funded tool for social care and is recognised by NHS and local authority commissioners and the Care Quality Commission.
