Someone's got to query how long it took for the press release to be typed up - not me, I wouldn't do that kind of thing. Another fine to pay for another data breach?

TheTeapot Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Loads of people were working from home for a period of time, there will probably be loads of this kind of thing if you think about it. Not all of it nefarious. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. This reason might work if all the records were for patients seen between 2020 and 2023 - and even then, they should have been returned to the office at the earliest opportunity. But records relating to 2000 to 2014? No, no - arguably they shouldn’t have been taken home at all, let alone retained there for a further nine years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all of it nefarious. It won't apply here though. According to the press release, this relates to "patients seen between 2000 and 2014". I suspect an ex-employee has moved or died and a load of old stuff been found. What's interesting here is how poorly communicated all this has been - even though it's clear that a lot of extra information is widely known. As well as contacting individuals affected, there needs to be a better explanation of what happened and whether patient care could have been affected. Were the records found duplicate information or was information missing from files which could have affected care, for example. No one would blame current management for the data breach (unless there's evidence they knew earlier and did nothing) but the way the response has been the usual "Everything is fine, nothing to see here" is depressing. It might be acceptable to be this tight-lipped before the whole thing was investigated, but they've clearly had the time to do this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know which discipline or clinic the breach occurred from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(In my defence of this attempt at humour, having a hospital aviary is quite Pythonesque) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly a district nurse who held on to some some papers/notes from their rounds?

Family member today received an advisory letter from Manx Care saying their SALT files were discovered in the private dwelling. Maybe that's a clue.
