If the German airline knew about secret Andreas LUBITZ disease may not have been a disaster Germanwings Airbus. Do doctors in Poland should warn employers that their employees are suffering from mental illness? Material magazine “Poland and the World”.
Each new day brings new shocking information about the remote control that led to the crash of Airbus A320. How to inform the German media, health status LUBITZ just before the crash was bad. He was under the care of a psychologist. This raises the question: in what circumstances and to what extent physicians and psychologists bound by professional secrecy.
How does it work in Poland?
When it comes to psychologists, there are exceptions to the rule that all the information that they receive from clients are confidential. As for the threat to health or life of the man or of others or other cases mentioned by the law.
The psychologist is required to notify the police, among other things, the customer plans to murder, bringing hazardous events or take control of the plane or boat .
Intention secret
The situation changes when the patient is a client of the private psychologist, but it is treated, eg. psychiatrically. Here includes provisions on the protection of mental health.
– When the patient admits to a psychiatrist before criminal intent, his intention is also covered by medical secrecy – says Justin Zajdel the Medical University of Lodz.
The right, but not the obligation
This doctor can not notify law enforcement authorities or to testify on the matter before the court. However, it has the right but not the obligation to inform the employer that the employee can return to the doctor, who, in turn, may declare the ability or inability to work.
– At this point, we should very gently inform relevant people that that person in some way should be moved away from their work – Professor adds. Adam Tarnowski from the Military Institute of Aviation Medicine.
Germanwings plane crashed last week in the Alps – according to investigators Lubitz deliberately led to disaster. 150 people were killed.
