Capture and Storage of Images Recording of Patients Clients Policy.docx
DCHS Capture and Storage of Images Policy - Photography is widely used within the Trust to take images of patients, staff and the public for a range of purposes. DCHS staff also make recordings, both visual and audio, of patients, staff and the public. This policy is in place to safeguard the privacy and dignity of the subject and to ensure all images and recordings are stored and used correctly according to Data Protection Legislation and the Caldicott Principles. The images and recordings can be in relation to patients, staff and the public.
Prevent Policy (P46)
The overall aim of the policy is to make clear the duties, responsibilities, and arrangements in place to enable DCHS staff to safeguard and support individuals (children, young people, adults or staff); where it is suspected that the individual(s) is at risk of being drawn into terrorism or other forms of extremist activity. Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults is everyone’s responsibility and this Policy sits alongside the DCHS Safeguarding Adults Policy and the DCHS Safeguarding Children’s Policy. The Counterterrorism and Security Act 2015 places a duty on certain bodies, including NHS Trusts, to have “due regard to the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism”; including a statutory responsibility to appoint a Prevent Lead and provide training for all staff. Healthcare staff have a key role in Prevent. Prevent focuses on working with individuals (patient’s and/or staff) who may be at risk of being exploited by radicalisers and subsequently drawn into terrorist related activity. Prevent does not require staff to do anything in addition to normal duties. Staff are expected to raise concerns about individuals who are being exploited in this way (DOH 2011).
