Περίληψη:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the awareness of nursing personnel on processing patients' personal data according to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (Regulation EU 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council). A cross-sectional study was conducted between May and June 2019 on a sample of 229 nurses working in the health care sector. A self-filled electronic questionnaire was constructed, evaluated for its validity and reliability, and used as a measuring tool. The participants were invited from nursing professional pages on social media. The study indicated that the nursing staff who participated were not fully informed about the GDPR and its implementation. The level of awareness of the participants was found to be related to the age, the employment in the private health sector, the education level, the position of responsibility and the years of experience. © 2020 The authors and IOS Press.
