NHS to suspend staff suspected of snooping on patient records

The NHS will stop workers who look at patient records without permission. The head of the NHS in England says this happens too much. It is not okay for staff to break patient trust. The NHS wants to protect patient privacy.

Many workers have checked patient records when they should not. This is a big problem. The NHS says enough is enough. They will suspend staff who do this. This means the staff cannot work until the problem is fixed.
