Personal information belonging to dozens of vulnerable people receiving government-funded home care on the Isle of Man has been lost. Paper records of phone numbers, names and addresses of 33 adults had been mislaid, the Department of Health and Social Care admitted. Codes to access the keys to seven peoples homes were also lost. The department said it had reported the breach to the Information Commissioner. It also said the missing key codes had been changed. Phone numbers for 43 people listed as next of kin and 11 carers have also disappeared. (English)
