Secure emails
Where personal, confidential, or sensitive information needs to be sent using email, the email must be sent securely.
Your Mersey Care email (your.name@merseycare.nhs.uk) is accredited to the same security standard (DCB1596) as the NHSmail (NHS.net) service.
This means that you no longer need to use your NHSmail (NHS.net) email account to send secure emails, as this can be done from your Mersey Care email account. This should help save you time, as you no longer need to navigate two email systems.
Please note that the use of password protected documents is no longer Trust policy.
