  1. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b posted a topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Hello, I am a Senior nursing student and I was kicked out of clinicals and made to repeat the course for a few issues that happened during the day. I would be lying if I said I wasn't as prepared as...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I am starting to embrace my time off as this whole situation has been very sobering. You can't get too comfortable or complacent, you have to always be on top of your game. I take full...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Yes because the internet is a very solid medium for detecting someone's true emotion. That is asinine to presume that I felt no remorse over the insulin mishap, but whatever, I am tired of explaining...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Perhaps you didn't read the part where I said that it severely affected my psyche. I am sure you have never once made a mistake right? And if you are a nurse you have never once made a mistake during...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Well said, certainly a learning experience. I was always careful during med administration and prided myself on being so, but I made a mistake that I will never make again. It is extremely important...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    You're right, it wasn't in the original post, I thought it was rather irrelevant until someone mentioned we should of got permission from her next of kin if she was unable to talk. Just so happened...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    As far is the HIPAA issue, there is absolutely nothing else I am leaving out of that situation. My fellow student was over in my pod and I told him I had a patient on a ventilator in which he asked...

  11. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    The insulin error occurred after lunch, roughly 1pm. She never mentioned anything relating to the error other than noticing that it was not the right dose. She continued to let me provide care for...

  12. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    The fact of the matter is I always double check my insulin with my nurse prior to administration. The fact that she caught it at the med station before I was able to is what I am getting in trouble...

  13. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I never once said it was "no biggie" that the nurse caught it after I pulled the needle out of the vial. You need to stop putting words in my mouth and assuming how I feel or reacted. I told you...

  14. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Nope, that is the entire story. They were really after me that day, they tried to say my cohort took a long lunch, and also tried to say that doing my care plan on their computers when I was actually...

  15. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Thank you very much, your response was very motivational. She handed me the 1/2 mL/cc syringe which is typically for insulin dosages between 31-50 units. So I saw a 3 and pulled back (being 30...

  16. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Hey thanks! It's one of those errors you make as a student or a nurse that really opens your eyes, the kind that you never make again. And I was perplexed why my nurse never brought up anything to...

  17. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    This was the first med error I have ever made, having quite a few clinicals under my belt. I also have zero disciplinary or nurse related issues nearly 3 years through my program. I can completely...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Hey thanks for the responses, most have been helpful with the exception of Ruby who started off her rebuttal critiquing my grammar which is irrelevant. Before the other student and I entered the...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Hey BostonFNP, thanks for the response. I am still trying to find documentation that what I did essentially violated HIPAA. Wouldn't the nurse who gave me permission to enter the room with another...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I didn't get kicked out of school, I was kicked out of the class and made to repeat. And again you are playing "would of" harmed the patient etc. The medication was never administered, should a...

  22. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I am not here to debate grammar, let's not act like you've never committed a grammatical error before, ridiculous. Second, you have no idea how I grieved because of the insulin error or how much it...

  23. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I have been honest throughout this whole ordeal. The main accusations against me was the insulin mistake, asking her what the medications were when we were hanging them early in the shift, and the...

  24. Kicked out of class for a "HIPAA" violation?

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    What bothered me is that I felt I did not have an advocate throughout the entire situation. My school's leadership was only concerned with the image of the school and not what my side of the story...

    Trip_McNeelyRN2b replied to Trip_McNeelyRN2b's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Actually our school doesn't go beforehand, or the night before to research or patients. We show up the morning of and start gathering information. Had I gone the night before to research meds, I...
