HIPPA Violation by Supervisor
I am a home care nurse and recently returned to work after recovering from an injury. My first assignment required me to lift and carry a patient outside the home for which I would not be covered as it is against policy. I refused and my supervisor told the patient's mother that I would not do it because I was recovering from an inhury. I feel that my HIPPA rights were violated and that this disclosure put me in a situation of being unable to darry our my duties. I am fully recovered and capable of doing the work that is required within the parameters of our resposibility.
Do I have a civil case for violation of my privacy?
