Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

A good attitude and positive action towards ED&I create an environment where all individuals can achieve their full potential. Creating such an environment is important for three reasons: it improves operational effectiveness, it is morally the right thing to do, and it is required by law. Patients and their families have the right to be treated fairly and be routinely involved in decisions about their treatment and care. They can expect to be treated with dignity and respect and will not be discriminated against on any grounds including age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. Patients have a responsibility to treat other patients and our staff with dignity and respect. Staff have the right to be treated fairly in recruitment and career progression. Staff can expect to work in an environment where diversity is valued and equality of opportunity is promoted. Staff will not be discriminated against on any grounds including age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. Staff have a responsibility to ensure that you treat our patients and their colleagues with dignity and respect.

All personnel are to comply with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, Environmental Protection Act 1990, Environment Act 1995, Fire Precautions workplace Regulations 1999, and other statutory legislation.

Confidentiality

This practice is committed to maintaining an outstanding confidential service. Patients entrust and permit us to collect and retain sensitive information relating to their health and other matters, about their care.

It is essential that if the legal requirements are to be met and the trust of our patients is to be retained all staff protect patient information and provide a confidential service. All staff are required to sign and adhere to the Confidentiality Policy.

Quality & Continuous Improvement CI

To preserve and improve the quality of our output, all personnel are required to think not only of what they do but how they achieve it.

This practice continually strives to improve work processes that deliver health care with improved results across all areas of our service provision. We promote a culture of continuous improvement, where everyone counts and staff are permitted to make suggestions and contributions to improve our service delivery and enhance patient care.

Learning and Development

The effective use of training and development is fundamental in ensuring that all staff are equipped with the appropriate skills, knowledge, attitude, and competencies to perform their role. All staff will be required to partake in and complete mandatory training as directed by the training coordinator. Staff will also be permitted subject to approval to undertake external training courses which will enhance their knowledge and skills, progress their career, and ultimately, enable them to improve processes and service delivery.
