George is employed with SA as a scribe. He was off today and accidentally cut his cheek while practicing his sword swallowing skills. He goes to the Emergency Department and is seen by a doctor and another scribe. The Emergency Department is extremely busy, and so George decides to help out the doctor by scribing his own note using the computer in the room. Has George taken the appropriate steps in this situation?

Answer:George did not take an appropriate step because he is accessing his own medical record using his EMR login

Step-by-step explanation:

When George is at work he is a scribe but when he comes in after being hurt he remains as a patient who should wait for their note to be written by another scribe and for their record to be revealed to them by the doctor.

George shouldn't write her own note or access his own medical record even if he knows how he has to wait for it as a patient because the information shall be properly delivered by the doctor .
