Confidentiality Agreement for Healthcare Professionals with Mendez for Clinical Interventions Inc and TheAppointments.ca.

Confidentiality is a cornerstone of healthcare and is embedded in its core values. Individuals share sensitive, personal information with healthcare professionals, and maintaining confidentiality is crucial for building trust in the therapeutic relationship. It is also a key legal requirement for all regulated health professionals.

The Health Information Protection Act (HIPA) establishes the rules for confidentiality and privacy of personal health information in Canada. HIPA mandates that individual health information be kept confidential and secure. It is the fundamental responsibility of healthcare professionals to maintain client confidentiality at all times. In compliance with HIPA, healthcare professionals must ensure that the professional relationship with the client and the client’s personal information are kept confidential, within legal limitations.

Healthcare professionals must explain the principle of client confidentiality and its legal limits to clients. They are also responsible for securing client information to prevent unauthorized access to records. A healthcare professional does not collect or use information about a client without the informed consent of the client or the client’s authorized representative, nor disclose information about a client without the written informed consent of the client or the client’s authorized representative, except where disclosure is permitted or required by law.

As a healthcare professional, I understand that these rules apply both during and after my collaboration with Mendez for Clinical Interventions Inc., TheAppointments.ca. Any infringement of these rules by me may be grounds for the termination of my service from the portal without notice and may lead to legal action.
