Patient Privacy:
Focus On Your Laptop's Physical Security
You can minimize the risk of people inadvertently seeing protected health information on your laptop or mobile device. Here's how:
Set up your station in a low-traffic area (ideally with a door).
Don't keep your back to passers-by.
Password-protect your computer.
Log out instead of leaving your machine idle.
Set your password-protected screensaver to come on after a short period of inactivity.
