FREEDOM OF INFORMATION – PUBLICATION SCHEME
The Freedom of Information Act 2000 obliges the practice to produce a Publication Scheme. A Publication Scheme is a guide to the ‘classes’ of information the practice intends to routinely make available. This scheme is available from reception.
Violent Or Abusive Behaviour
Thankfully this is very rare. We have a policy of zero tolerance regarding violence or aggression. All such cases will be reported to the police and dealt with accordingly.
