[acb-hsp] Hipa Question

[Darla Rogers]

We do have passwords for all the computer, and they are to be locked when
not in use, but this is a lounge/conference room of sorts with tables and
computers, so I hope they can divide it properly to allow us privacy with
our consumers.

Are your computers passworded?  I have to sign mine on all the time with a
password, therefore unless you know it, you cannot get on.  It may also be
possible to get them to partition sections of the computer (e.g., you'd have
your own section, another user would have theirs) and each person would have
their own passworded user profile.  This way, consumers and/or other staff
cannot access your stuff, or you theirs.
Just some thoughts.
But I would sure think, especially with security issues, this would be a
real concern.

	I have had this concern since I began my new job as an independent
living specialist at the coalition for Independence in Kansas City, Kansas.

	 

	We are housed in pretty small cubes; when clients/consumers meet
with us, we meet in a lounge where other staff and consumers can access
computers.

	 

	Today a consumer of mine with an MSW brought up that very question
to me, so I felt emboldened to bring it up with my supervisor.

	 

	What say you all?
