Yes! If it is necessary to prevent harm to the patient or to prevent the patient from harming themselves or someone else such as when a patient threatens to kill themselves or someone else. This situation usually occurs when dealing with patients with psychological problems. However if information about a patient is used for any purpose other than health care, the health care worker is most likely in violation of HIPAA.

How can you get into another relationship when you are in love with someone else?

You don't. Some people think it will help by dating someone else to get over the person they are still in love with when in truth they are just lieing to themselves and using an innocent heart. If you still love that person then you won't think about anyone else. Just remember that you don't need someone else to make you who you are.
