— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
病人隱私保護(Confidentiality)要求醫療資訊僅能在專業照護需求下,於適當的場所進行討論。將未鎖定的電腦螢幕留在公共走道,任何人皆可輕易查閱病歷資訊,這屬於嚴重的隱私洩漏。討論病情時應避免在公共區域,且資訊共享需符合「知情同意」與「照護必要性」。其他選項皆屬醫療團隊成員間的必要溝通,符合專業倫理規範。
Client confidentiality requires that medical information be shared only with the interdisciplinary team for care purposes and in private settings. Leaving a computer screen with patient data visible in a public hallway violates privacy regulations and allows unauthorized individuals to access sensitive information.
