Mostly all of the violations were a patient's information being discussed in front of another patient or the information being left around for the other

Mostly all of the violations were a patient's information being discussed in front of another patient or the information being left around for the other patient to see, hear, or be able to snoop. This all could have been avoided by taking the extra steps to either not mention the patient's identifiers, correctly putting away the files, shredding the files, not discussing information in front of other patients, or logging off of computers when leaving a patient's room. To reduce these violations from happening I would take the extra steps to protect the patient's information by either not speaking about the patient unless avoiding identifiers and making sure to not leave information in the open for anyone to see.
I personally have never witnessed this, but if I had I would have reported it to someone in charge. I would not want for my health information to be spoken about in public or where random people would be able to hear.
One violation that I noticed that could be easily fixed is in Scene 5 when the doctor leaves the computer open and the patient is able to go into the health record and snoop or change information. This can be fixed by making sure the doctor had logged off of the computer before he had left the room.3. Reply Posts:Reply to two people on different days

To add to the academic conversation, reply to your classmates/instructor by introducing a new idea that applies personal experience(s) and/or new knowledge gained from either courseroom material(s) or research (UMA Library). Make sure your reply is substantive. For example, How were your thoughts and ideas similar or different? Do you agree or disagree with their point of view, and why or why not? Remember to build on your classmates' posts and expand the conversation as if you were all sitting in the same room having a face-to-face discussion.
