2. Protecting Patient Health Data
As an ASHA, you collect and record important health information during household visits and while using the National NCD App. Beneficiaries trust you to keep their personal and health information safe.
Keeping patient information confidential and protected is an important part of your responsibility. It helps build trust between you and the community and ensures that health information is used only for providing better care.
Now, let’s watch a short video to learn how you can protect patient health data during your daily work.
Beneficiaries trust you with their personal and health information. Always collect only the required information, keep it confidential, use it only for patient care, and never share your login credentials or patient details with unauthorized persons. Protecting patient data helps build trust and ensures better healthcare services
Key Takeaway
Every conversation is an opportunity to educate, every household visit is an opportunity to build trust, and every beneficiary’s information should be treated with care and confidentiality.
