This resource includes information on:
- Informing staff
- Patient health information
- Material and equipment
- Computer and IT information security
- Insurance
- Taxation and business related registrations
- Business banking arrangements
- Practice accounts and financial records
- Governing bodies and local authorities
- Utilities
- Subscriptions and memberships
- Security
