If someone accesses medical records or passses medical info on to any third party then they should be sacked, or if they are a nurse or doctor then they should be struck off. I'm sure the US will be the same, but if it happened in the UK, the nurse would be removed from the NMC register and would not be allowed to work as a nurse any more.
Sounds good. But in reality, how are you going to prove it? There is a local elder here who works at the hospital as a bigshot nurse. He would find out the "stuff" and you would get destroyed. Nothing would happen to him. Nothing could be proved. And the mighty ORG would crush you even harder if you tried to turn him in.
