[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s valid info on a patient’s history[/quote]

No, it is not.

Calling a patient an immigrant and writing place and country of birth is private information.

Unless you record place of birth and citizenship status of all of your patients, this is not a valid patient’s history.

There is also difference between stating “lived in country XYZ”, vs “immigrant”.[/quote]

You’re just completely wrong and absurd.  I really doubt you are in the medical field. [/quote]

Right  :roll:

Check your biases and xenophobia before posting. I bet you have some self esteem issues if you feel that writing derogatory or overly private remarks about patients is ok. How would you even know whether a person is an immigrant? Accent, the way they look? How do you pick whom to ask inappropriate questions?

Btw … I am talking about legal immigrants who have been here about decades. If you were in a medical field, you would know that they have already been through a significantly higher health screening and verification of vaccinations than those who were born here.

If you have a health related concern about the place where a patient lived, you write it down and explain why you think that might be important to know.

Not just: immigrant, born in city A, country B. At best, you are being lazy and ignorant.[/quote]
