Summary Care Record (SCR) and your Summary Care Record with Additional Information (SCRAI) 

Additional Information (SCRAI) 

If you are registered with a GP practice in England, you will already have a Summary Care Record (SCR), unless you have previously chosen not to have one. It will contain key information about the medicines you are taking, allergies you suffer from and any adverse reactions to medicines you have had in the past. 

A Summary Care Record with Additional Information (SCRAI) contains significantly more useful information.

It can include information about medication, allergies, adverse reactions, your illnesses and health problems, operations, vaccinations, how you would like to be treated (such as where you would prefer to receive care), what support you might need and who should be contacted for more information about you. 

Having a SCR or SCRAI helps by providing the NHS healthcare staff that are treating you with vital information from your health record. This will help the staff (especially if they do not know you) make better and safer decisions about how best to treat you. 

You have the choice of what information you would like to share and with whom. Please note only authorised NHS healthcare staff can only view your SCR or SCRAI with your permission and using an auditable means of access. The information shared will solely be used for the benefit of your care and remains confidential. 

You have a choice.  When you registered with the Practice you would have been asked to make a decision.

If you chose not to complete the consent form, a core Summary Care Record (SCR) was created for you, which will contain only medications, allergies and adverse reactions. You are free to change your decision at any time by informing your GP practice.
