Ensure you follow all the instructions on the Assignment page for this assessment.

Q1: 500 words

Case Study: 

On a recent visit to a sexual health clinic, Nola gave the clinic her new address. The administrator wrote the address down on a post-it note but forgot to enter the new address into the clinic’s client system.

Nola’s sexually transmitted disease test results were sent to her old address. The results were opened and viewed by the people at the old address. They then informed Nola they had received them. Nola was humiliated.

Instructions:  

1. Applying the specific clauses of the Health Information Privacy Code (HIPC), explain whether and how the clinic is subject to the Code.
2. If the clinic is subject to the Code, identify the relevant sub-rules that have been breached, linking the breaches to the relevant conduct.
3. Describe the complaint process for a privacy breach, identifying the institutions involved in the process and any final remedies for Nola at the relevant tribunal. You must cite relevant sections from the legislation and use in-text cites as appropriate.
4. Do not discuss CDHSCR, the HDC, or the HPDT.

Q2: 500 words

Case Study:

Jess, an oral health therapist, was convicted of criminal harassment under the Harassment Act 1997, after harassing her neighbour over several months.

She also had a conviction for drink driving from 4 years previously.

As a result of the criminal harassment conviction, Jess is charged under s100(1)(c) of the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (HPCAA) at the Health Practitioners Disciplinary Tribunal (HPDT).

Instructions

Identify two HPDT cases charged on the same ground under the HPCAA, which is 100(1)(c).

Ensure you provide references for the HPDT cases.
