Can a patient with a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order receive medical treatments?

Choice A rationale
Report the incident to the organization. According to HIPAA, the first step a healthcare provider should take after an accidental disclosure of patient information is to report the incident to the organization. This allows the organization to assess the breach, determine the extent of the disclosure, and take appropriate actions to mitigate any potential harm.
Choice B rationale
Inform the patient about the breach. While informing the patient is important, it is not the first step. The organization must first assess the breach and determine the appropriate course of action before notifying the patient.

Choice C rationale
Ask the unauthorized personnel to delete the information. This step may be part of the mitigation process, but it is not the first step. The incident must first be reported to the organization for proper assessment and documentation.
Choice D rationale
Ignore the incident unless someone reports it. This response is inappropriate and violates HIPAA regulations. All breaches must be reported and addressed promptly to ensure compliance with HIPAA and protect patient privacy.

Choice A rationale
Confining a patient to a room without provisions for their care is not the best definition of false imprisonment. While it may be considered neglect or abuse, false imprisonment specifically involves restraining a person against their will without legal justification.
Choice B rationale
Restraining a patient against their will is the correct definition of false imprisonment. False imprisonment occurs when a person is intentionally confined or restrained without their consent and without legal authority.
Choice C rationale
Applying physical restraints to prevent falls is not considered false imprisonment if done with proper consent and following legal and medical guidelines. It is a safety measure, not an unlawful restraint.
Choice D rationale
Implementing a care plan without patient consent may be considered a violation of patient rights, but it does not fit the definition of false imprisonment. False imprisonment specifically involves physical restraint or confinement.
