What are health records and archives?

0

Health records, in the sense that they feature in HARG’s name, are records in any format and of any age that have been created by an organisation in the health sector or that have content, created by an organisation or an individual, relating to matters concerning health. They include, for example, minutes of meetings, accounts, staff files and databases of patient treatment. Health archives are those such records which have been selected for permanent preservation, typical examples of which include minutes of management board or other high-level meetings, registers of hospital admissions, operations, births and deaths, and photographs and plans of buildings.
