School districts are commonly adopting electronic storage systems, including electronic health records. Included in this adoption is a move toward cloud-based record storage systems to handle the increasing volumes of data. Deciding which system to adopt is especially difficult in times of tightening school district budgets. While there are several options to consider, including the outright purchase of a proprietary system or choosing one of a relatively new group of free programs, lead nurses must work to ensure that student information is protected and that any chosen system complies with privacy laws. This article provides a case study and presents legal and ethical considerations related to maintaining the privacy of health records in the school setting.
学区普遍采用电子存储系统,包括电子健康记录。这种采用包括转向基于云的记录存储系统,以处理不断增加的数据量。在学区预算收紧的时期,决定采用哪种系统尤其困难。虽然有几种选择可供考虑,包括直接购买专有系统或选择一组相对较新的免费程序中的一种,但护士长必须努力确保学生信息得到保护,并且任何选定的系统都符合隐私法。本文提供了一个案例研究,并提出了与在学校环境中维护健康记录隐私相关的法律和伦理考量。
