Understand why protecting patient information is critical to safe care. See how security builds trust, supports patient safety, and meets healthcare legal and professional obligations.

See how your healthcare organisation manages security risk through policies, procedures, and leadership decisions and how these controls shape daily clinical and administrative work.

Adopt essential digital and physical security routines. Learn to secure workstations, manage access to restricted areas, and ensure that patient records, whether on screen or paper, are never left unattended or exposed to unauthorised eyes.

Discover how attackers impersonate colleagues, suppliers, or patients to get access or information. Practise recognising warning signs and know what to do immediately when something feels off.

Learn how to transfer information securely within your team and with care partners (e.g., GP, pharmacy, transport). Choose the right channel for the situation and prevent “wrong recipient” mistakes.

AI tools are everywhere, but how do you use them safely? Learn the pitfalls of 'shadow AI', prevent medical data from leaking into public models, and ensure human oversight remains at the heart of every clinical decision.

Know what counts as a security incident or data breach, and why speed matters for patient safety. Learn the first steps: contain, record key details, and report to the right place.
