Personal Data Breaches

Media, Serious Incidents

Dear FOI team,

I have looked in the annual report and that only categorizes ‘incidents’ – so in theory a single incident could , involve hundreds of patients having their records inappropriately accessed.

Case in points is this case in Taunton from 2023 which was only categorized as one incident.

Hundreds of medical records ‘inappropriately accessed’ by Somerset hospital worker | Somerset Live

So I would be grateful if you could treat this as a new request to include incidents as well as the number of patients affected by each incident.

Under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I am requesting anonymised, aggregated data regarding adult patient metrics held within your electronic patient record (EPR) systems and submitted to the national Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS).

Please provide the following data for the most recently completed financial year (1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026):

1. Patient Cohort Counts

Data Formatting Request:
Please provide the information electronically in a reusable format (such as an Excel or CSV file).
