Patient privacy protection is a cornerstone of any patient bill of rights and is a major goal of any nurse or medical professional. Without privacy, the basis of trust necessary to facilitate patient healing simply can not occur. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) increasingly dominates the nursing landscape. Safeguarding private patient information is not just important. It is the law. HIPAA provides federal protection for personal health information that is held by the affected organizations (and their contractors) and gives patients a wide spectrum of rights related to that information. Such organizations include health care providers (doctors, nurses, etc.), heath plans (insurance, HMOs, etc.) or health care clearinghouses (entities that process nonstandard information) or student records at universities. An organization is required to know if it is an entity covered by HIPAA in order to comply with the law. Once the records are no longer needed, their appropriate and secure disposal are the responsible of the health care provider or other applicable entity in the health care chain. Any unauthorized disclosure of the patient information is that entities responsibility. Comprehensive HIPAA training

After having recently upgraded the family iPad2 to the Apple iOS6 operating system, the many new features that make integration to the iCloud needed to be configured across all family iPhones and the MacBook Air our family shares. Our family went to the local Apple Store and the Genius Bar there to have a member of the staff assist us in solving account conflicts as well. The picture to the left was taken in our local store. Visiting the Apple Genius Bar in a Local Apple Store As our family is entirely running Apple iPhones, iPads and MacBook Air PCs, we chose to visit the Genius Bar and determine how best to make the devices work together better. There had been conflicts across each specific account, with logins often being required for various application updates on certain family members' iPhones and not on others. Each device had been updated with iOS 6. The iCloud feature had kept all the data in the right accounts and even backed up everyone's iPhone, the family iPad2 and MacBook Air, all without any of the family specifically forcing it to. The staff at the Genius Bar explained that this is how the new operating system is configured, and that irrespective of authentication to get into the Apps Store the specific accounts for each device were still recognized by iCloud and used to back up each device. As our family routinely uses these devices for homework and outside projects, that was a welcome relief. The account authentication issue had been caused by the primary account owner's ID being the default login on all devices. The expert at the Genius Bar was able to solve the problem within five minutes and had it replicate across all the devices immediately on the store's Wi-Fi system. The Genius Bar expert also showed how each iPad in the family is backed up and how the iCloud can be configured to store all e-mail archives as well. This was extremely useful for my parents, who run a business and need to have constant back-ups of all their correspondence.
