F 0583 Keep residents' personal and medical records private and confidential. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observations, interviews, and record review the facility failed to protect the confidentiality of personal and medical records for one (LVN A) of three staff observed for confidentiality of records. Residents Affected - Few The facility failed to ensure LVN A locked and closed the laptop during the medication pass exposing resident on the female locked unit's personal information.
