Cevap

The correct actions include logging off the EHR when leaving a workstation, using designated shredder bins for printed reports, and closing the client's door before discussing medical history.
The correct actions actively protect the client's personal health information from unauthorized access. Logging off the computer secures digital records, using locked shredder bins ensures printed data is safely destroyed, and closing the door prevents incidental verbal disclosure.

Evaluate each option against established guidelines for confidentiality and information security.
Identify actions that actively protect protected health information (PHI) in electronic, physical, and verbal formats.
Nurses are legally and ethically required to safeguard client privacy across all forms of communication.
2
Identify exceptions and security violations presented in the options.
Recognize that mandatory reporting of abuse supersedes privacy rules, and that sharing credentials or updating unauthorized visitors are clear security breaches.
Understanding the limits of confidentiality and recognizing unauthorized access are essential for safe nursing practice.
