Declaration of Interest Register

LUPSET HEALTH CENTRE REGISTER OF POTENTIAL / DECLARED CONFLICT OF INTERESTS

The public rightly expect the highest standards of behaviour in the NHS, and at Lupset Health Centre we take our responsibility as custodians of taxpayers’ money very seriously. Decisions involving the use of NHS funds should never be influenced by outside interests or expectations of private gain. However we do recognise that sometimes conflicts of interest are unavoidable in complex systems and procedures. We must ensure that whenever a potential conflict of interest is identified, or an actual conflict of interest is declared we review this and mitigate against this possible conflict whilst being open and transparent with the general public.

Our staff need to be empowered to use good judgement in managing conflicts of interest effectively, and need to be safeguarded so they can continue to work innovatively with partners whilst also providing transparency to the taxpayer. To achieve this we have a register of potential and declared conflict of interests which is reviewed annually and updated as and when amendments are made.
