Generic responsibilities

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion


A good attitude and positive action towards ED&I creates an environment where all individuals are able to 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.


Safety, Health, Environment and Fire (SHEF)
This PCN is committed to supporting and promoting opportunities for staff to maintain their health, well-being and safety.


The post holder is to manage and assess risk within the areas of responsibility, ensuring adequate measures are in place to protect staff and patients and monitor work areas and practices to ensure they are safe and free from hazards and conform to health, safety and security legislation, policies, procedures and guidelines.


All personnel have a duty to take reasonable care of health and safety at work for themselves, their team and others and to cooperate with employers to ensure compliance with health and safety requirements.

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
The PCN and associated practices are 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 pertaining to their care.

They do so in confidence and have a right to expect all staff will respect their privacy and maintain confidentiality at all times.


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.


Quality and Continuous Improvement (CI)


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

By continually re-examining our processes, we will be able to develop and improve the overall effectiveness of the way we work.

The responsibility for this rests with everyone working within the PCN and practices to look for opportunities to improve quality and share good practice and to discuss highlight and work with the team to create opportunities to improve patient care
