A registered nurse is on break and checking emails. One email contains a picture of a celebrity who is a patient in the hospital, and on the same floor, where the nurse works. Included with the photo is a message, "check out my Facebook," which contains additional photographs of the patient. The nurse immediately deletes the picture to prevent having to report the "friend" to supervisors. Based on the action of the nurse who received the message, which statement is correct?
A) The nurse is not at risk for having his/her license suspended since removing the photos made them temporary and invisible to all others.
B) Because the nurse did not send the message and immediately deleted the photo, there is no risk for discipline.
C) Failing to report receiving the message places the nurse at risk for discipline.
D) Because the patient is on the same floor as the one on which the nurse works, the information can be ethically and legally shared.
