Professional and Regulatory Accountability

• Be knowledgeable about your professional, regulatory and legislated accountabilities as it relates to the privacy and security of individuals’ personal health information.
• Be aware of the unique risks associated with the provision of care in specific clinical settings (e.g., use of mobile devices and remote care delivery to citizens in their homes). Expanding use of robotics, cameras, sensor technologies, and the Internet of things will further increase threats.

Ultimately, it’s about keeping patients and their information SAFE!
