    “Your privacy is important to us� so how did patients’ medical exams get on Youtube?

    Alnitak7 replied to Alnitak7's topic in General Nursing

    You were not there when I was studying HIPAA and having it trigger enough rage to send me through the roof. If no one in the USA "blatantly ignored" the right to privacy then HIPAA law would not...

    I will have you know that I am all done watching these videos. If I want to have an accurate idea of what is included in them and create a thread because I wrongly think HIPAA is tied in then I need...

    That is not what I said. I'm sorry for my long-winded posts where some people misunderstand my meaning. I will have to work on that. Just so you all know, I DO NOT think HIPAA is a joke and...

    I did not type in "girls private parts." I don't think you could really unearth these videos by typing that in. This is making me sound more devious than I really am. If these were Media videos...

    Sorry about that. I just had to vent because in my general goings about, I have met up with adults who are still acting like eight-year-olds with their sense of entitlement to invade people's privacy...

    Maybe I should re-phrase this. People who distribute information are sometimes seen as victims who "need to get it out," rather than the abusers they are, but this is getting into a different...

    Only African American Nurse on Staff

    Alnitak7 replied to nette1022's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I hope you're not living too far up north or you'll always run into trouble. I always thought blacks should work with other blacks and it's specifically because of the misunderstandings you describe....

    NCLEX - snowstorm?!

    Alnitak7 replied to Evanescent's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It's a crime to take pictures of your patients

    Alnitak7 posted a topic in HIPAA Challenges
