Digital Social Care

The Data Security and Protection Toolkit is an online self-assessment tool that allows health and social care organisations to provide assurance that they are undertaking good data security and that personal information is handled correctly. The aim is that all health and social care organisations move towards eventually reaching the Standards Met level. All adult social care providers in England who have not already registered with the toolkit should do so by 30th September 2020.
