Information Governance
As the volume and complexity of information held by NHSScotland increases, so do the risks to confidentiality, IT security and freedom of information
Information Governance Competency Framework
NES is working in partnership with the Scottish Government Health Directorate's e-Health Division to develop a framework of educational support for all staff in this important area of healthcare.
Please see the useful links section at the bottom of this page for more information.
Safe Information Handling
NES has launched Safe Information Handling - a new, mandatory
e-learning module to support all NHSScotland staff in this
important part of their work. The assessed module is designed
to assist clinicians, managers, administrators, support staff and
others in understanding requirements for data sharing and
confidentiality.
Safe Information Handling is available from the learnPro learning
environment. Information about registering and accessing learnPro
can be found at the learnPro NHS home
page.
