Hi! If you don't mind, can you tell me which facebook groups you joined or subscribed to? Thanks in advance.

Hello I'm a nursing student and I'm just wondering if it's a HIPAA violation that will get me expelled from my nursing program if I go back into my patient's medical record once they are discharged the day before. So out of 2 days of the week during clinicals, we get to choose 2 patients to write up on. So on the 1st day I was too busy helping my nurse so I didn't get to really research and write down information of my 2 patients to complete my paperworks. My nurse made it seem like my 2 patients weren't going to get discharged soon so I thought I can try writing my patients Diagnoses, Labs, etc for my paperwork the next day. However, the next day, one of my patients got discharged after I left my clinical shift. Would it be a HIPAA violation and would I get written up and reported if I go back and access their mr to finish writing their info for my clinical paperwork?
