It will be a violation because he discuss the individual's medical info to his ex's friend during the term of being licensed. That's how his ex became aware of the access. He will need a good reason to explain accessing the records 10 or more times. He should have kept his mouth sealed.
He has graduated and is now licensed. However, the act was performed over 10 times prior to being licensed. The last access was a few months prior to being licensed. The information was recently discovered, reported to both the nursing board and OCR.
My classmate friend accessed someone's medical record unauthorized on numerous occasions during clinical as a student. He is now licensed and the individual found out about the accessed and has notified the nursing board and OCR. Will his license be revoke even though the incident happened prior to being licensed?
