title: Security of electronic patient record and education.
abstract: The evolution of the paper-based to Computer-based Patient Records (CPR) or Electronic Patient Records (EPR) changes the way in which we have to perceive and deal with privacy and security issues. The education and awareness of the users and public of the selfsame issues hold a very important role. A survey was conducted by the Laboratory of Health Informatics of the University of Athens concerning the awareness of future health care professionals. The results are discussed further down and an attempt to define profiles of training courses on security is made.
