HIPAA?

So a friend of mine mentioned on facebook that she hated how clinical facilities treated SNs. I commented back that I liked our previous clinical facility (and I mentioned the name) because they allowed us to do a lot. I also mentioned that the MAs were very nice and wanted us to go on runs with them to help with medication. I didn't mention any names or specifics - it was done in a positive light.

My dean just called me a while ago saying that what I posted was a HIPAA violation and I needed to delete it ASAP. She said that I signed a HIPAA waiver that this violated. It was mentioned that it would come up in the next staff meeting and they may need to talk with me. It wasn't too bad!

I didn't understand that HIPAA covered this. Could anyone clarify what I did wrong and maybe the appropriate material that outlines this?

    I'm shocked your school permits you to friend instructors on social media while an active student. This was prohibited at my school until graduation.

    It could have been a FB "friend" (and I use the term loosely) who turned the OP in. Plus if the school or facility is tagged in the first post, I believe that they (the school/facility) are able to see the subsequent posts even if they are not tagged again.
