    • True

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Hand washing is the number one way to avoid spreading infectious diseases because it helps to remove germs and bacteria from our hands. Many infectious diseases are spread through touch, and when we wash our hands properly with soap and water, we can effectively eliminate these harmful microorganisms. Hand washing is especially important before eating, after using the restroom, and after being in public places. It is a simple and effective practice that can significantly reduce the transmission of infectious diseases and keep ourselves and others healthy.

    • Putting any PHI that has been printed in the shred it bin once you are done with the document

    • Locking up any PHI that you have at your desk when you leave for the day

    • Putting your printer on lock print

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "All of the above" because all of the mentioned actions contribute to securing protected health information (PHI). Securing outbound emails with [secure] in the subject line helps protect the information during transmission. Putting printed PHI in the shred bin ensures proper disposal. Turning over PHI at your desk during a short break prevents unauthorized access. Locking up PHI at your desk when leaving for the day adds an extra layer of security. Putting the printer on lock print prevents unauthorized individuals from accessing printed PHI. Therefore, all of these actions help in securing PHI.

    If the fire alarm should go off in your office, you will immediately proceed to nearest elevator.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is advising to proceed to the nearest elevator in case the fire alarm goes off in the office. This is incorrect because during a fire emergency, it is not safe to use elevators as they can malfunction or trap people. It is recommended to use the stairs instead, as they provide a safer and quicker way to evacuate the building.

    You should immediately evacuate the building in the event of a tornado.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Evacuating a building immediately in the event of a tornado is not always the best course of action. It is generally recommended to seek shelter in a designated safe area within the building, such as a basement or an interior room on the lowest level. This helps protect individuals from flying debris and the strong winds associated with tornadoes. Evacuating the building can be dangerous as it exposes people to the elements and increases the risk of injury. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that the HITECH Act, which stands for Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, was enacted in 2009 to promote the adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) and strengthen the privacy and security protections for healthcare information.

Therefore, it is true that the HITECH Act furthers HIPAA violations for protecting electronic health records.
