The Data Security and Protection Toolkit

Funding will continue for another year to enable us to offer training and support to help providers complete their DSPT. This announcement from the Department of Health shows their commitment to improve Data and Cyber Security within Adult Social Care.

Keeping your paper and digital information safe is key to running a care service people can trust. You can protect your business, your service users and your staff from data losses and take steps towards protecting yourself from cyber attacks by completing your Data Security and Protection Toolkit.

The DSPT is easier to complete than you think.

It is not an assessment but a self-evaluation and you probably have most of the policies and procedures in place already. If you need any help or support, you can not only attend one of our free webinars but we can provide significant (and free) one to one support at a time that suits you.

All CQC registered care providers should complete the DSPT at least once a year.

We hold regular online sessions to help you complete your first DSPT, and we can also offer further support for those who are Republishing their annual self-assessment.

Our next session on DSPT is on 30th May at 2.30pm.
