LEGAL EAGLE on page 57:
(please read this first before doing the assignment)
Many highly sensitive conversations regarding patients occur throughout the day in any medical setting. Remember that patient communication, treatments, diagnoses, prognoses, and other communications must never be discussed outside of the medical facility or with anyone in the facility not involved in an individual patient’s care. Information may be shared only with the patient’s consent and on a “need-to-know” basis. Patient information can be shared only with health care professionals directly involved in the care of the patient. Written consent is reqired before any information is released to anyone other than those directly involved in the oatient’s immediate care. Sharing information without the patient’s expressed consent is illegal and may result in legal action against you.
