HCRG Care Group, formerly Virgin Care, provides community health and social care services across Bath and North East Somerset (BANES), Swindon and Wiltshire.<\/p>\n
It is commissioned by the NHS and local authorities to run services like GP practices, urgent care centres and sexual health clinics.<\/p>\n
Adams receives daily care at home from nurses at HCRG and earlier this year spent a month in St Martin’s Hospital in Bath with a broken femur.<\/p>\n
“You don’t want all your private medical stuff going around, it’s wrong,” he said.<\/p>\n
“They’ve only just let us know – 15 months late. I was fuming.”<\/p>\n
Adams now receives regular cold calls from unidentified numbers and fears his phone number was included in the breach – something HCRG denies.<\/p>\n
He is also increasingly concerned the third-party thieves could use his personal information to access his bank accounts, though the company heavily dispute this.<\/p>\n
“It’s disgusting,” he said. “Other people are going to be worried to death over this.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HCRG Care Group, formerly Virgin Care, provides community health and social care services across Bath and North East…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":647585,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[102,2960,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-647584","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-healthcare","tag-health","tag-healthcare","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647584","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=647584"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647584\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/647585"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=647584"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=647584"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=647584"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
