Nurse relates funny event that happened on the unit on her Facebook page. No patient identifiers were used. Is this a HIPPA violation?

IMO unless someone is directly identified or can be by the information then I do not feel this is a HIPPA situation.

While it is boardeline, it is not a violation.
