Examples of how to keep clients information private
A clients information need to hold with a lot of privacy as required by the code of ethics in health care .information about the health of a person need to be kept safe away from intruders .there are many ways to ensure information is kept with privacy and confidentiality because if there is a loophole and the information gets to leak out may damage the reputation of the organization or even be made to meet hefty fines (Brown, 2011). A client’s privacy can be ensured by having assigned a client a code name that is only known by the clients and the service provider. Another way to keep informed of a client with privacy is by having them stored in a device that requires an authentication process to access any information, i.e., Secure device.
Right to test drugs in the employees
Companies should not have a right to issue random drug tests to the employees. Drug testing is vital towards the efficiency of the firm and the issue of its reputation and firms delivery of the firm. It is essential to analyses and investigate systematic and biased drug testing done by organizations, drug testing based on biases targets certain groups in an organization .it is fundamental for an organization to adhere to the rules and procedures that are standardized to conducting drug tests within an organization (Leigh & Streltzer, 2014). If organizations were allowed random test, they world risk being in the wrong side of the law and in the case of an incident it must be acted upon immediately before the targeted employees seek legal redress and make an organization face the legal proceeds .it is essential to ensure that drug test is done within the law and with no element of biases against the employees hence they well are sure that there is no chance of being overlooked and no one is treated differently.
A drug treatment facility
With the granted money, it is essential to start an inpatient drug treatment facility unit. This is because, with an inpatient facility, the patient can be examined and be monitored closely and efficiently. With inpatient services, there can be psychiatrist services, psychologists, nurses, and doctors within .with an inpatient facility. It is difficult to expose the patient to substances and drug abuse because of close supervision and restriction son number of visits. The clients would expect treatment, boarding facilities, and possible referrals in the case of complexities in the cases. The clients should expect an environment free of drugs and substances, counseling, and having some social groups within. The facility should also provide medication to the clients and supporting functions. The facility should be located in Nebraska, where statics show that there is an alarming rate of social crimes and the influence of drugs and drug use in the state. The personnel will be tasked with admitting mentally and psychologically disturbed persons and also those needing referrals. Drug addicts will also be included because they make a bigger percentage .sometimes, the personnel should be involved in activities of looking at the solutions towards the issue of drugs in the society and possible recommendations to the patients or clients. They can also be involved in follow-ups in those who were admitted before to ascertain their progress.
Choice of if to allow the patient to leave or not
The fact that drug problems stem front the home environment would wrong to allow the patient back to that environment because there is an increased chance of him being reintroduced to drugs again. I would advise him that it is still unsafe, and he has not fully recovered from the effects of drugs. I would advise her that he is still under medication, and there is a likelihood of a recurrence.
Whether to allow substances or not
Depending on the circumstances, a recovering patient may use the substance, and at some levels, it is not recommended. If a patient is an addict, he can be allowed the substances in small amounts (Connolly, 2009). If a client is not an addict, he can be denied access since he or she can live without, and with a prolonged denial, he or she will be used to living without, and there will be no chance of recurrence.
