This digital health and wellbeing contact has been devised by public health nurses (school nurses) within Healthy Together at Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust. Its purpose is to identify any health concerns that you may have and to offer digital information and support about the topic area that you are concerned about. If you are worried about certain topics a member of the public health nursing team may ask to meet with you individually at school. An example of these topics might be if you are a young carer, are self-harming or have low mood or anxiety. The school will not know why you have been asked to see a member of the public health nursing team.
Completing the questionnaire will help us to understand about your health and also the health of your school community. This will enable us to try to make improvements in the life and wellbeing of young people in your community.
Confidentiality
The information you are completing today is confidential. This means that any information given will not be shared without your permission to do so. Unless you give permission, Healthy Together will not pass on anything you say to anyone else for example parents, teachers or other students – except in exceptional circumstances to protect you or someone else from harm.
Anyone who receives information from us is also under a legal duty to keep it confidential. The information that we collect will be stored electronically on secure NHS information systems. Healthy Together has access to your health records via an electronic database – most GP's and other health services add information to your health records when you go to see them. This can help us to provide the right support for you. Where you are being seen by other health services, we will share information with them where it is relevant and supports your ongoing care and treatment. However, where we asked to share information outside of these circumstances, we will seek your permission to do so. If you are concerned about the way we may be using and sharing your information, you can contact our Data Protection Officer via the following routes: Tel – 0116 2294051 or email – LPT-lpt.dataprivacy@nhs.net. We are required by law to share information to protect you or someone else from harm.
