Information security and legal aspects - who cares?
The symposium will focus on legal and security issues related to communication and sharing of electronic health information within and between institutions and healthcare levels. The available technological solutions are not necessarily adapted to the way the nursing and caring sector is organised. The focusing on continuity of patient care creates the need for new ways of organizing the processing of and access to patient information for health personnel in the daily patient care. Role-based and context-based access to patient information are among relevant topics to discuss.
Aim:
The objective is to give healthcare workers, patients/citizens, health managers, ICT-managers and system providers and developers an opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience about legal and security challenges and possible solutions related to the use of electronic health record systems, electronic communication, electronic observation of patients, mobile solutions, and telemedicine in the nursing and caring sector in general. The symposium should show examples of relevant legal and security issues based on experience from projects and services worldwide, focusing on ways of avoiding or overcoming possible barriers and solving problems.
On a more overall level it is important to clarify the legal framework within which these services must operate and the security requirements and ethical challenges this entails.
