It is essential to highlight that in the healthcare environment, all
people have the right to respect their health data from a professional
level. Therefore, the nurses must prevent people from accessing their
personal information and data without prior authorization under the law,
that is, informed consent. Nurses must take all appropriate measures to
guarantee the right to information protection (Safran, 2018).
From another point of view, nurses must allow patients to access
the identity of the professionals who care for them and feed the clinical
history of each patient with the complete information of each
professional. An important aspect is the autonomy of the patient, which
assigns obligations to the nurses in the protection of the clinical
documentation from the general principles and in-depth to everything
related to the clinical information generated in the care centers, for
example, copies of the exams and the patient’s medical history (Safran,
2018).
The copy of reports and complementary tests of patient results,
require nurses to limit and safeguard the confidentiality of personal data
before third parties, including the professional’s comments. On the other
hand, the nurses involved in research, epidemiological or teaching
studies have access to the patient’s medical history, safeguarding the
transmission of any data that can identify the patients or participants,
unless the patients give their consent not to separate the identifiers of
clinicians-assistants (Safran, 2018).

The role of information management nursing practice is based on
the use of appropriate technologies to manage patient information from
information management programs. This includes the communication
between devices that support nursing, medical, and administrative
activities in the healthcare environment since nurses are the main ones
responsible for daily activities around patients (Toromanovic, Hasanovic
& Masic, 2018).
The use of telecommunications to transmit patient information
from one department to another, from one professional to another,
always ensuring the integrity and safety of the patients. Additionally,
they must support all patient information in programs and databases with
the exact and accurate information of each procedure (Toromanovic,
Hasanovic & Masic, 2018).
Nursing practices should include the main limitations and
benefits of information management that have the use of technologies to
administer and process patient information. The role of nurses is to
identify promptly how these factors alter the effectiveness of health care
and how they affect the health of patients (Toromanovic, Hasanovic &
Masic, 2018).

In the current situation, it is necessary to look for creative
solutions that allow the maintenance of health. There is no doubt that the
medium and long-term follow-up of chronic and elderly patients, such as
consultation between specialists and many other activities, could benefit
from the implementation of telematics techniques in the field of health.
The application of Telemedicine ranges from the computerization of
patients’ medical records, teleconsultations or tele-diagnostic, to robotic
interventions. The most extended services are teleradiology,
telepathology, teledermatology, teleconsultation, telesurgery, and
teleophthalmology (Chang et. al, 2014).
Diabetes Education and Telemedicine (IDEATel) is a tool that
allows diabetic patients to access diagnosis, consultation, and training
from the comfort of their homes. This tool aims to offer care and
attention from primary and preventative care. Initially, it emerged for
Medicare beneficiaries. However, today, different people can access
essential consultations and random information about diabetes
management, prevention, and control (Chang et. al, 2014).
Another technology tool is the Comprehensive Health
Enhancement Support System (CHESS) is an application that allows
patients to access primary care services. The particularity is that it points
to the population in crisis, who need health, social and welfare support
through a device such as computers, cell phones or tablets (Chang et. al,
2014).

Respect for private life and the right to the elements that
constitute it are not public objects of general information, is recognized
in all constitutions and legal frameworks of advanced and democratic
countries. The need for guidance on confidentiality responds to the
general objective of improving quality in people who request health care
and attention. Based on the above, nurses have the role of protecting the
right to be protected in everything that is considered part of the identity
of the patients, that is, everything that the patients recognize in
themselves and that differentiates them from the rest (Darvish,
Bahramnezhad Keyhanian & Navidhamidi, 2014) — for example, their
medical records, personal data, and confidential information within the
healthcare environment.
Within the healthcare environment, the rights to privacy and
intimate give rise to the duty to the confidentiality of all professionals
involved in the care and attention of patients (Darvish, Bahramnezhad
Keyhanian & Navidhamidi, 2014). Therefore, nurses have the obligation
not to disclose everything that belongs to the privacy and intimate of
patients. Confidentiality refers to “how” nurses should protect patients’
health information.
The relationship established between patients and nurses is
extremely complex. The patients, distressed by their situation, are
willing to collaborate in whatever is necessary to recover their health.
Sometimes, it will even reveal secrets that they have never shared with
anyone, not even with their most loved ones. Other times it will be the
nurses who discover, through analysis or other explorations, data that the
patient does not know or did not want to reveal, in this case, nurses must
ensure the desire for autonomy of patients to protect this personal
information not competent for the diagnosis, treatment or monitoring of
patients (Darvish, Bahramnezhad Keyhanian & Navidhamidi, 2014).

The role of information management nursing practice is to
collect patient information from admission to health institutions, then to
feed the medical history after they have been admitted. This information
has the only purpose of serving as a source of information for all health
professionals who interact with patients. Therefore, all the information
that nurses collect is vital to the safety and quality that is offered to
patients (Gassert, 2018).
Another role of information management nursing practice is the
administration of information collection, selection, and processing
technologies. For example, programs to monitor patient care. In this
case, nursing activities are focused on ensuring the correct functioning
of information and information management programs (Gassert, 2018).
Finally, the role of information management nursing practice is
to allow immediate and timely access to the sources of information of
health institutions. Therefore, nurses are facilitators and information
consultants. However, they must allow access to authorized personnel
(Gassert, 2018).

First, Mobile Health (mHealth), a tool that allows researchers to
identify, know, and approach underserved populations. This tool enables
underserved populations to access health professionals quickly and
easily from the application on any mobile device with WIFI (Bakken,
Currie, Hyun, Lee, John, Schnall & Velez, 2019).
Another alternative is the short messaging services, and it allows
the unattended population to access emergency health services through
SMS. This service reduces the disparity among the underserved
populations, offering easy access without the need for WIFI. When the
communities send text messages to the health centers, an operator
receives the information and classifies the need of the patients, then
sends useful information to the people attending to their complaints and
concerns (Bakken, Currie, Hyun, Lee, John, Schnall & Velez, 2019).
Finally, one of the most typical is the use of the internet to
communicate with health centers, or professionals according to the
needs of the patients. Some of these professionals offer free attention to
underserved people, and some health centers provide assessment and
access to low-cost medications, depending on the severity of the
symptoms (Bakken, Currie, Hyun, Lee, John, Schnall & Velez, 2019).
