    If discussing the details here is a HIPAA violation, is it possible that the root of the incident was also a HIPAA violation?

    I'm going to piss into the wind and guess it was a nurse making some crude jokes about a patient and their health problems, or, their status.

    I'm not saying you're wrong or right, but the context of the situation made it all that much worse, and what the nurse in question did was fucking degrading

    Pissing in the wind is a HIPAA violation and also violates the Pissocratic Oath.

    All I've got to say is that kids today are so much better than we (at least, me and my peers) were when we were kids.

    I told my 5 year old that 'sometimes boys are born with girl parts, sometimes girls are born with boy parts' and all she said is 'everyone is born different' and went back to playing.

    When I wasn't much older, 'that's gay' was synonymous and used as often as 'that sucks' and we played 'smear the q-' without thinking about it.

    So the world - slightly less horrible than before.

    Yeah I was making absolutely no judgement calls there, believe-you-me.

    I've been privy to a lot of those conversations as an IT guy in healthcare and it makes me :bigfrown: every time.

    These are the people in charge of your health and they will make flippant conversation and jokes at your expense too.

    You flip this at its face and how would an average Joe feel if the nurse that was cleaning up his colostomy made a joke at their expense. That's degrading and you're supposed to be a better person as a healthcare provider.

    Doctors are some of the worst HIPPA violators. I had to surgically remove x from this mans ass. Followed by joke about the last time he had to do remove something from someones ass. That is not something you want to hear from an ER surgeon.

    Working in a clinic...

    You have no idea how often I'm right about this.

    I've made some crude jokes here about even this topic, but it pales in comparison to some of the stuff I've overheard.

    At the end of the day when I make my joke I feel terrible and need to shower the filth off myself... but these people ... they smile when they do these jokes. Right to your face. They're bullies.

    I'm going to put myself out there right now, but, to this day, I still feel terrible about the joke I said in response to nerdgasmic.

    This is for publication in a professional news letter my agency puts out. So yes they are pretty strict. If it was a class I would be like, whelp that is done!

    I mean I have boiled a 9 page published article to 659 words. I need 650 max including title and citation. So in reality I boiled it down to like 620. Its technical writing, those damn word counts are important.

    The HIPAA thing is not a surprise but I grew up in a medical household. Most people have to vent about what they did at work just to feel better. Sometimes it is frustration. Sometimes it is an interesting or funny anecdote. It happens usually verbally with no names and just the event.

    At work you are much more strict on it or you should be. That is professionalism.

    Hell I have tons of funny things I run into that fall under either PII or HIPAA at work and I would love to tell the story but I don't here because it is public. Friends in person privately in my own home? I might.
