Description

A hospital fired a worker after she reported that her co-workers mocked a patient who had a dildo so far up his rectum that it had to be surgically removed, the woman claims in court. "Around this same time, one of the hospital employees, with access to the patient's Protected Health Information and the patient's X-ray showing his embarrassing condition, published this information on a computer and/or board in an area where all hospital employees could see it - including doctors with absolutely no involvement in this patient's care, and non-medical staff, including housekeeping staff."
