9.4 Confidentiality

Overview

All the information concerning clients, clinical staff, clinical agencies, students, and other learning experiences (such as testing and simulation) is to be kept in confidence and is only to be discussed during pre- and post-clinical conferences. Discussing client information on social networks is grounds for immediate dismissal (withdrawal). Additionally, cell phones may not be utilized in sharing client information or used in client rooms/care areas as it may give the appearance of a breach of confidentiality. ANY BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY MAY BE CAUSE FOR DISMISSAL FROM THE PROGRAM. (See Student Confidentiality Agreement in Appendices)
