    Your worst nightmare (Part deux)

    should the press be exempt from adhering to HIPAA laws?

    If you want to work in psych you must be crazy yourself...

    should the press be exempt from adhering to HIPAA laws?

    I remember back in the early 80's (pre-HIPAA?) when the newspapers were full of stories about President Reagan's hemmorhoids; it just flipped me out. I kept saying "WHY do we need to know about...

    Ridiculous medical mistakes on TV

    It always slays me that whatever medication it is that must be given"STAT!".....the patient gets it IM in the antecubital space. I see that 18g/1+1/2" needle vigorously shoved down and in; think about...
