We have new templates to help you complete the Information Governance Toolkit


Words Worth Reading Ltd now provide downloadable templates that facilitate the in-house completion of required documentation for the Information Governance Toolkit.

Information Governance (IG) is the framework for handling personal information in a confidential and secure manner to appropriate ethical and quality standards in a modern health service.

The Information Governance Toolkit (IGT) is an online system which allows NHS organisations, including community pharmacies, dental practices, eye care services and general practices along with adult social care services and other health related providers to assess themselves against Department of Health Information Governance standards.

The latest version of the IGT, version 9, is considered to be more rigorous and prescriptive than previous versions. It has been further tailored to fall in line with the Information Governance requirements of the Care Quality Commission's registration process. 


Words Worth Reading Ltd has a wealth of experience in supporting companies to meet the Information Governance requirements, and we now offer a new service to help you write your own information governance documents. We now provide downloadable templates that facilitate the in-house completion of required action plans, policies, training material and process mapping. These templates can be purchased from our website.
