Dutch TV station did some social engineering trics in hospitals

A dutch tv station did some sociale engineering trics to get access to electronic medical data or systems in hospitals and succeeded. It are classicals that are in each handbook.

With one hospital they presented themselves as working for a computer firm.

With some other hospitals they presented themselves as a collaborator from another hospital that needed access to some medical data of their patients.

No double check was done, No security officer had to agree to the access.
