Patient confidentiality is one of a patient's rights in the medical profession. Keeping the patient's information safe and secure from others is an essential component in the counselor/patient relationship. The definition of confidentiality is 'the state of keeping or being kept secret or private.' The interviewer wants to ensure that if hired, you will follow patient confidentiality laws. Describe how you define confidentiality and the importance of it in your profession.

"My definition of confidentiality as it relates to patient care is the act of keeping my patient's private information safe and secure from others. That is, I do not talk about my patient or release their names to others who are not directly involved in their care. I do not release information to the patient's family members or friends without the patient's written authorization to do so."
