There are specific guidelines to ensure patient's Protected Health Information is kept private. I understand that my employment with the agency involves handling Protected Health Information. I will ensure patient's records are protected by enforcing the following measures: * Patient Protected Health Information will be transported in a protected travel chart when traveling.
*When transmitting and receiving a fax involving Protected Health Information, I will ensure that it is conducted in a private area.
*Patient Protected Health Information will be returned to the agency upon acknowledgement of the patient being discharged.
