On Thursday, a report was published in the media regarding VieCuri's children's service patient data discovered near the school. Venlo hospital. The VieCuri Medical Center regrets it enormously. It can not and must not happen. Patient data can not leave the hospital unsafe.
VieCuri: "We have a considerable impact on this problem and we have of course conducted a thorough investigation". We of course inform the competent authorities, namely the Dutch Data Protection Authority and the Dutch Health and Youth Inspectorate, as well as our Data Protection Officer. if the current procedure for this type of report can be improved For all our colleagues, it must be very clear how to act when this happens. "
In the meantime, we know how the papers were lost.In order to act quickly during his service, a child-care provider had a patient list (no patient records). This list was in her pocket and she unconsciously and unwittingly took her outside during her break.When she was then called back to the hospital urgently, the list fell out of her pocket. [19659004] In the conversation that the reporter had with the department in question, it was agreed that he would bring the papers found on the same day.Unfortunately, this did not happen and, the journalist did not receive no information, it could not be recalled.When the journalist again contacted him yesterday, the data protection officer of VieCuri immediately reacted.
VieCuri does not recognize himself in the image of the journalist e t at his signal that they would not have been taken seriously. "We are grateful to the reporter for pointing out to us that he treated the data with integrity and that it was no longer disclosed." By notifying us, we can do everything in our power. power to prevent this happening again.
This is a very serious problem that interests us immensely.All patients and parents / guardians on the list are personally informed of this problem. "[19659008] Photo:
