The practical nurse (PN) is working with a newly hired PN on a medical surgical unit. Which action performed by the newly hired PN requires intervention by the PN?

A. Providing healthcare information by report to the client's physical therapist: Sharing relevant medical information with members of the healthcare team involved in the client’s care is appropriate and complies with HIPAA regulations. B. Informing clergy that a church member has been admitted to the facility: Many facilities allow disclosure to clergy with client consent or if the client has requested spiritual support. However, confidentiality must always be maintained, and identifying details should only be shared as permitted by policy. C. Posting client names and healthcare providers on hospital room doors: Displaying personal health information publicly violates the client’s right to confidentiality under HIPAA. Such postings can expose sensitive details to unauthorized individuals and must be avoided to protect client privacy. D. Requesting clients to sign their name on a roster at the front desk: This is generally acceptable for administrative purposes such as registration or appointment confirmation, as long as no medical details are visible to others. The practice should still ensure compliance with facility privacy standards.
