Information Governance for Healthcare Training

Healthcare organisations are entrusted with highly sensitive personal data every day. Patient records, staff information, and operational data all play a critical role in delivering safe, effective, and high-quality care. As the volume of data collected and stored continues to grow, so does the importance of managing it lawfully, securely, and responsibly.

The Information Governance for Healthcare e-learning course provides a clear and practical overview of information governance requirements within healthcare settings. It brings together key areas including data protection, Freedom of Information requests, and information and cyber security, helping learners understand how these obligations interact in real-world healthcare environments.

This course explains the legal and professional responsibilities placed on healthcare organisations and individuals when collecting, using, storing, and sharing personal data. Learners will gain confidence in understanding when information can be disclosed, when it must be protected, and how to make defensible decisions that balance transparency with confidentiality.

Designed for both clinical and non-clinical staff, this training supports healthcare organisations in building a consistent and compliant approach to information handling across services.

On successful completion, learners receive a digital certificate confirming CPD hours and learning objectives.
