Cevap

The compliant actions are turning off the computer monitor when away, disposing of printed schedules in a secure shredding bin, and moving clients to a private room for clinical assessments.
Protecting client confidentiality requires safeguarding electronic data (turning off monitors), ensuring proper destruction of physical documents (shredding), and maintaining physical privacy during clinical interviews (using private rooms). These actions collectively align with standard information security protocols.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the computer usage scenario.
Securing the screen when unattended is identified as a compliant action.
It prevents unauthorized individuals in the clinic from viewing electronic protected health information (PHI).
2
Analyze the document disposal method.
Using a secure shredding bin for schedules with names is identified as compliant.
Documents containing PHI must be destroyed properly rather than thrown in standard, accessible trash receptacles.
3
Assess the communication and privacy practices.
Taking clients to a private room for assessment is compliant, while discussing cases in elevators or writing names on public whiteboards are breaches.
Verbal and written communication must be protected from incidental disclosure to unauthorized parties, including the general public and uninvolved staff members.
