Avoiding HIPPA

I had big visions about the blog and I haven’t made the time to shape it the way I had envisioned it. I think that I have been hesitant to post my experiences more is due to not knowing mug about HIPPA. I know the basics: don’t name names, list places and or specific identifying facts that may lead a person to know who or the specific situation I maybe talking about. Even though I understand that, there’s still a huge fear because anyone can read this and any blog like mine and say, “that’s me!” and then starts drama. But who knows if that will happen. It has happened though to other people though. I did a presentation on social networking in relation to HIPPA and I found articles discussing people that purposely and or inadvertenly violated HIPPA in blogs and sites like Facebook. Even when HIPPA was not violated, the posting was brought to light. I could write a posting more about my presentation later and reference articles.

So bare with my absence! Just trying to figure this all out.
