More reords left lying arround

It would seem that the NHS in Scotland are still not caring about looking after records. It is incidents like this that cause me to distrust health workers to look after my records. The hospital was in a 20 year shut down phase and the last thing they seemed to care about was patient confidentality.
It makes no difference if the records are on paper or on a computer if the person who is meant to be looking after it fails to do so. When patient confidentality is the last thing on your mind, you should not be allowed access to the records.
