Cevap
The appropriate actions are logging off the electronic health record, verifying caller identity with a privacy code, and ensuring physical privacy by closing the door and curtain.
Protecting client rights involves maintaining both physical privacy and information confidentiality. Logging off the computer prevents unauthorized access to electronic health records. Verifying a caller's identity using a designated code ensures information is only shared with authorized individuals. Providing physical privacy during assessments respects the client's dignity.
