Project Link: all_about_hipaa__3_.pdf All About HIPAA - an infographicAs I mentioned briefly in previous blog posts, HIPAA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a legislation enacted by the U.S, government to protect the privacy and security of sensitive patient information. The infographic above serves to educate patients on how HIPAA rules and regulations as well as compliancy by healthcare providers help to protect their safety and private information. I was inspired to create this project by a HIPAA compliancy course that I was required to take prior to the start of internship. I wanted my project to help me reinforce my knowledge of HIPAA and its importance in healthcare professions.
I decided that my infographic would look more professional and organized if I created it digitally, so I started to work on it in Canva during the second week of internship. When I was finished with my initial draft, I presented it to my mentor for critique and feedback. I received mainly good feedback on my work overall, as well as a few formatting suggestions. The night before my on-site POL, however, all my information was accidentally deleted from the infographic. Fortunately, I had saved an earlier version of the document with all of the original content. Since my mentor had insisted that the infographic be letter-sized, I had to create my own template with custom dimensions. In the end, it still looked professional, organized, and engaging, which was my goal for the project. In my POL, I used a presentation on Google Slides. The link to it is attached below. my_internship_experience_halker.pptx
