On March 29, 2022 a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a Consent Agreement between BCCNM and Megan Angel Munoz of Kelowna, to address practice issues that occurred between July and August 2021 related to contravening privacy policy and legislation when she accessed the personal health records of two individuals with whom she had no therapeutic relationship without their knowledge or consent, for the sole purpose of obtaining their health information to inform an employment decision regarding hiring one of the individuals as a nanny, and for clinical practice concerns identified while orientating to public health practice.
The Registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a condition on their practice, including:
A three-week suspension.
Remedial education in professional ethics and boundaries.
A regulatory practice consultation program to address the foundational issues underpinning this Agreement.
The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
