nurse went in my friends patient records to get her number to text me.
I live in Louisiana. I went to the ER with my friend & her boyfriend.
she had an upper respiratory infection.
I was in the room with her, we were in & out.
I talked briefly with the doctor & nurses about what’s been going on with her & they gave her input.
About an hour after we left, my friend gets a text from one of the nurses there asking if he can have my number.
she instantly felt violated & so did I.
what can I do legally? I know this is a MAJOR VIOLATION OF HIPPA.
can I sue in the state of Louisiana????
