c.Access and share only the information needed to perform the specific job task
d.Post updates on social media to keep family informed

The HIPAA minimum necessary standard requires that staff access and share only the protected health information needed to accomplish a specific task. Browsing records out of curiosity or oversharing violates this principle. Limiting access protects patient privacy and reduces the risk of breaches.
