Abstract Article42, paragraph 2 and Article 44, paragraph 3 of the Law for Public Health Nurses, Midwives, Nurses, and associate nurses. Students receiving education in medical colleges learn knowledge, techni...ques, and attitude as specialists through care practice at hospitals, public health centers, or home visit nursing stations. Students without a license perform nursing practice under the guidance of instructors. A great responsibility rests on students who know patients' personal information. We carried out a survey on 48 first-year and 32 third-year students of the nursing department who took part in the clinical practice. And we analyzed their way to handle patients' personal information. As a result, school year was statistically associated with two items (place where they fill out recording forms, and persons with whom they often talk). Many first-and third-year students filled in recording forms at home, but the number of students who filled in the forms at the library increased in the third year. Many first-and third year students talked with members in the same group about information on patients in charge. However, the third-year students also talked with teachers and ward instructors to use medical information. This survey showed that nursing students always kept it in mind not to leak personal information on patients and behaved appropriately. For example, they avoided talking about it in public and tried to keep safely the file of personal information. But there are two aspects in handling personal information. One is to keep it from leaking out. The other is to use it for medical treatment, leaving aside personal secrecy. Students must know these two aspects.show more
