Britney Spears Pysch Caregivers Fired at UCLA
Posted on March 14, 2008 at 11:35 pm (PST)
UCLA Medical Center is terminating at least thirteen staff members, and suspending at least six others, for looking at the confidential medical records of Britney Spears while she was hospitalized there.
The LA Times reports that in addition to these firings, at least six doctors will face disciplinary action for snooping into her computerized records at the hospital.
According to the Times, UCLA officials admitted this wasn’t the first time Spears’ privacy had been compromised. Several employees were caught snooping into her records in September 2005 after she gave birth to her first son, Sean Preston, at Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center. A few of those employees were fired as well.
Patient privacy is sacred, and based on trust. Those workers got exactly what they deserved.

For some reason, I looked at that headline and started laughing—–I thought they’d been fired for making her crazier than she already was.
