To send photographs by email:

DIGITAL INFORMED CONSENT – EMAIL OF PHOTO

WHY a photo?

Your clinician would like to see a photo to help with your consultation; this will allow a more accurate diagnosis and plan to be made.

WHAT options

If you cannot provide a photo you can have a video consultation or a face-to-face consultation.

WHO will see it

 

The clinician dealing with your care will be able to see this photo and it will be stored in your records. In future, other clinicians and administration staff (who are also bound by confidentiality) will be able to see this photo in your records should they need to access your records during the course of their work. The photo may be shared with other clinicians for your care, e.g. if referring you to another service.

 

HOW

 

Please email your photo using the link above.

Subject Line:  Unique patient ID number from your clinician

Body of Text: Requesting clinicians name, your first and surname and DOB (a brief description if required, i.e. Right Ankle)

 

The photo will only be used for direct care, unless you give us permission to use it for teaching or other purposes, e.g. writing an insurance report. The photo would also be provided if a court required your records in relation to legal proceedings.

 

Please note that a photo from your phone to the practice email is not a secure link and may expose you to cybercrime for which the practice cannot be held responsible.

 

WHERE

The image will be stored in your GP records for as long as you have them in the United Kingdom and should be transferred if you move practice.
