Confidentiality
- 1. Confidentiality By: Angerine McCook-Fields
- 2. What is Confidentiality Confidentiality is a set of rules or a promise that limits access or places restrictions on certain types of information. Within the context of professional ethics, observing the principle of confidentiality means keeping information given by or about an individual in the course of a professional relationship secure and secret from others. This confidentiality is seen as central to the maintenance of trust between professional and service-user. The obligation to maintain confidentiality does not normally end with the individual's death. Confidentiality is owed equally to mature and immature minors, and adults who lack the capacity to make decisions for themselves. It also applies to fellow professionals and students studying to enter one's profession. It applies to all forms of transmission; verbal, written, digital, manual or hardcopy records, video and illustrations etc. – wherever they can be identified with a specific individual.

- 4. Training on Confidentiality Medical staff members should be trained annually on Confidentiality; especially for those who have access to personal information Training on HIPAA Rules and Regulations Staff member should know that there can be serious ramifications for violating a patient’s privacy Medical staff members who have access to personal information should be required to attend the annually training. Provide employee handbooks that address Confidentiality & should sign a copy for their personnel file. At end of training, employees should have an understanding of Confidentiality, and signed the Confidentiality Agreements
- 5. Guidelines Employees may not order, view, or copy anyone's chart or other patient information, except as required by their job responsibilities and according to the Medical Information Department guidelines. In certain limited circumstances, it may be necessary and appropriate to verify a patient's appointment time and date, without going into the patient's medical records. This should be discussed with the supervisor in each area to be sure everyone is aware of how to do this without violating Confidentiality Guidelines.
