Our half day Caldicott Guardian training course will increase your confidence in protecting patient data confidentiality.
Appropriate information sharing is key in the health and social care sector – it ensures that caregivers of all types have up to date, relevant information about the people in their care. Patients can be at risk if their information isn’t up to date, but the information also needs to be shared and guarded in line with law and ethics.
Our half-day Caldicott Guardian course is designed with real-life practice in mind. Expert trainer Barry Moult will take you from the initial ‘what is it?’ of the role, through thought-provoking case studies, to understanding the breadth and impact of data sharing in health and social care.
Part 1: The Role
Part 2: Applicable Data Protection Laws
Part 3: Data Security for Caldicott Guardians
This is a virtual course which is held online using Microsoft Teams.
We start the course at 9am and finish around 1pm.
The course takes around 4 hours to complete, but we remain flexible on timing, as often we will discuss practical applications to develop understanding.
The purpose of the training is to ensure that delegates are sufficiently trained to deliver the role of the Caldicot Guardian. Delegates will come away with a deep understanding of the role, the safe sharing of patient data and mitigation of risks associated with patients, staff and the organisation.
Delegates will confidently be able to understand what data they can share, and provide assurance to the Board that the organisation is acting in the right manner.
