We just returned from our trip to London, which was very successful. We met with various solicitors, information security firms and Healthcare organizations to discuss various topics ranging from information security to the use of expert witnesses internationally.
Both our articles on expert witnesses have been published and each Journal has asked us to write a new article specifically on information security and HIPAA. I will post the link to the articles tomorrow.
Additionally, we have been asked to write a continuing blog about Legal Nurses and information security in America, with interactive features where healthcare companies can ask us questions about expert witnesses, HIPAA and legal matters.
We also were able to see a public demonstration while we were there. Protestors against the war in Gaza were marching and chanting about the attacks on Gaza by Isreal.

In London they historically have had 'Legal Observers' that are posted at public demonstrations and take notes and watch to make sure there is no police brutality occuring. We saw some Legal Observers that were watching the police activity in the Square that day.
The police had about fifty police cars and they were surrounding Trafalgar Square. Other police were hidden on side streets in vans, wearing full riot gear. Eventually the police blocked the demonstrations from marching several times, and then the demonstrators got angry. They began to march to the Israeli embassy in an attempt to overthrow it, and the riot police came out to stop them.

Some of them eventually smashed a few windows in some Starbucks up the street from us, although we did not see it happen.
