MEDICAL AND CARE RECORDS

Keep Essential Medical Information Clear.Make It Available to the Right People.

Maintain school-held medical conditions, allergies, medication requirements, care plans, dietary needs, medical alerts and first-aid records within the connected learner journey. EdiWay helps authorised school staff find the health and care information they need while keeping sensitive detail permission-aware and separate from SEND, safeguarding and ordinary classroom records.

A CONNECTED SCHOOL MEDICAL RECORD

Dietary Context

Connect relevant food requirements.

Care Plan

Medical Context

Restrict sensitive detail while surfacing what responsible staff need.

CLASSROOM AND STAFF VISIBILITY

Show the Practical Information.Protect the Sensitive Detail.

Teachers and other staff may need certain medical information to support a learner safely. They do not automatically need the full medical record.

Teachers

See authorised alerts and practical classroom information relevant to their responsibility.

Teaching Assistants

Access suitable care information for assigned learners.

Medical or First-Aid Staff

Use the wider records required for their authorised role.

School Leaders

Receive appropriate oversight according to responsibility.

Access relevant dietary or allergy information where authorised.

Trip Staff

See the practical health and care information required for an approved activity.

Authorised Professionals

Contribute through a defined purpose and relationship where supported. Medical access should follow need and responsibility rather than general access to the learner profile.

Families are often the primary source of health information provided to school. EdiWay can support appropriate family involvement.

Medical Updates

Provide authorised changes to school-held information.

Care Plans

Contribute relevant family context.

A learner may have medical, SEND and wellbeing support at the same time. Those areas can be connected without being merged.

Medical Records

Maintain health conditions, medication and care information.

SEND Records

Maintain educational needs, strategies and provision.

Wellbeing Records

Maintain pastoral and SEMH support.

Classroom Strategies

Surface approved practical information from the relevant source.

Professional Evidence

Preserve the authority and origin of each contribution.

Permissions

Control access separately according to responsibility. A medical condition does not automatically establish SEND. A SEND record is not a medical diagnosis. A wellbeing record is not a clinical record.

SAFEGUARDING BOUNDARY

Connect Where Necessary.Keep Safeguarding Decisions Separate.

Medical or care information may sometimes contribute relevant safeguarding context. That does not make every medical record a safeguarding record. Where authorised staff identify a safeguarding concern:

Preserve the Medical Record

Keep the original health information in its proper domain.

Raise a Concern

Use the school’s controlled safeguarding workflow.

DSL Review

Keep safeguarding interpretation with authorised staff.

Restricted Chronology

Maintain subsequent safeguarding activity separately.

Information Sharing

Use only the information relevant to the defined safeguarding purpose. EdiWay does not infer abuse, neglect or safeguarding risk from a medical condition, injury or first-aid record.

NHS AND HEALTHCARE INFORMATION

Preserve Provenance.Do Not Imply Clinical Integration.

Schools may receive health information originating from healthcare professionals or services. Where supported, EdiWay can preserve that source context within the school-held record.

Source

Identify the professional or healthcare origin where appropriate.

Document

Maintain authorised evidence.

Learner Relationship

Keep information connected to the correct learner.

Restricted Visibility

Limit access according to purpose.

Revocation or Change

Review access when professional relationships change.

School Use

Translate authorised information into appropriate educational or care actions. EdiWay should not currently be presented as directly integrated with NHS clinical systems. The platform does not replace NHS records, clinical coding, prescribing systems or healthcare decision-making.

PERMISSION-AWARE MEDICAL RECORDS

Make Safety Information Available.
Keep Sensitive Health Information Controlled.

Medical information can be particularly sensitive. Access can depend on:

School

Which organisation maintains the record?

Learner

Does the user have responsibility for this learner?

Role

Does the person require medical information for their work?

Information Type

Do they need an alert, a care instruction or the full underlying record?

Action

Can they view, add, administer, update or review?

Time

Is the responsibility current?

Context

Is the information required for classroom support, medication, catering, a trip or another defined purpose?

Family Relationship

Is information being shared with the appropriate parent or carer?

Professional Relationship

Does an external professional have a defined purpose and authorised scope? Permission-aware access should allow staff to act safely without opening health information more widely than necessary.

GOVERNED AI AND MEDICAL INFORMATION

Help With Administration.Never Give Clinical Advice.

Medical information requires clear boundaries around AI use. Where enabled, EdiWay AI may help authorised users organise information they already have permission to access.

Record Summaries

Prepare a working summary for human review.

Care-Plan Preparation

Help organise supplied information into a draft structure.

Family Communication

Prepare administrative wording for authorised checking.

Missing Information

Highlight fields or evidence that may require human review.

School Handover

Help structure approved school-held information for an authorised transition. Every output remains a draft.
