Ensuring residents’ information is sent safely and securely​​

Wide-scale adoption of NHS.net mail accounts fosters smoother and more secure communication across the healthcare network – such as care homes, GP practices and hospitals. This is the preferred system for Proxy Access and for hospitals to safely share patient information with social care.​ ​

NHSmail is available to all CQC-registered care providers who ​have achieved ‘Approaching Standards’ on the ​Data Security and Protection Toolkit.​​

What our care services say:

“Before NHSmail, my staff would have ​been required to visit practices to access resident information – taking valuable ​time away from care provision.”​ – Anda Marin, General Manager at Burlington Hall Care Home
