Health information must be handled lawfully, securely, and responsibly to protect patient privacy and maintain trust in healthcare services. Weak consent practices, unclear information governance, poor security controls, and inappropriate data use can lead to privacy breaches, legal exposure, service disruption, and reputational harm.
The Privacy Law and Information Management in Health Care course covers health information governance, consent, privacy responsibilities, digital health, information security, data governance, health innovation, and emerging issues affecting healthcare information management.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to understand privacy responsibilities, support valid consent processes, manage health information appropriately, recognize security risks, and contribute to responsible data governance. Certification is provided upon successful completion of the course.
