The Digital Care Hub has congratulated care providers on publishing their Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT) by 30 June 2024.
75% of care providers met the deadline, beating the target of 70%.
Michelle Corrigan, Programme Director of Better Security, Better Care, singled out homecare providers for their efforts, saying:
“We are particularly pleased to see the dramatic increase in homecare services using the toolkit. More than 63% have completed the DSPT, compared to just 4% in May 2021."
“Ultimately, of course, we want all care providers to take advantage of the DSPT and our free support programme.
“Thank you to our 28 support partners across the country – we really couldn’t do it without you.”
Further details about DSPT support.
The Homecare Association is a member of the Digital Care Hub consortium.
