Objective: The purpose of this paper is to describe the problems that arise in relation to nursing students' handling of patient information as well as the current status of students' instructions on the matter. The instructions needed to avoid these problems are also presented. Methods: Research was conducted by giving self-report questionnaires to nursing faculty at Japanese nursing colleges as well as those directly instructing nursing practice. Results: At present, these problems are not occurring by chance, but instead stem directly from students' low awareness of information privacy issues—suggesting that there is a need for more thorough instruction. Nursing faculty felt that the instruction they were already giving was effective for the most part in preventing most privacy problems. However, even instructions that a great number of nursing faculty members are implementing have been shown to be ineffective in some regards.At the same time, while detailed, time-consuming instruction and instruction that requires coordination with hospitals have been shown to be effective, there are few instructors who have experiencecarryingtheseout.In order to determine the appropriate features of instruction that would effectively prevent problems from occurring, a survey was again conducted on "necessary instruction". As a result, a diverse set of eighteen instruction items were identified, among them "emphasis on prohibited actions" and "implementation of review when problems occur". Conclusion: The type of instruction deemed necessary is critical for the proper handling of patient information and includes basic content that can be applied outside of Japan as well.
