Information governance made simple

A new board game intended to help practice and pharmacy staff understand information governance (IG) has been approved by the UK Council for Health Informatics Professions (UKCHIP).

The IG Game, created by change-management and training consultancy Focus Games, aims to make information governance more accessible when, due to the complexity of official guidelines and requirements, many organisations are failing to make the necessary changes.

“We are delighted that UKCHIP has recognised the IG Game”, says Focus Director Andy Yeoman. “It’s not easy for busy NHS staff to relate complex IG requirements to their daily working lives. The IG Game translates these complex requirements into a simple and practical toolkit. The game is fun, and the planning tools allow the practice or organisation to create and implement realistic IG action plans.”
