Jacquelyn "Jacqui" Hernandez, manager of pharmacy, is a down/right RUDEST person I have come across! No wonder she has so many bad reviews! Well, I've reported her to the CA State Licensing Board for her violation! Here's what happened: I was at register to pick up my medication when the cashier said insurance is denied. While she was trying again, I called the insurance company. The cashier kindly wrote down info she needed and provided me a pen to write info down. She asked me to step aside and point to counter and end (two registers), so I did and another women (whose info I exchanged in the parking lot), walked up to the register while I'm at the other side/register listening to prompts from ins recording on phone. All of a sudden, Jacqui Hernandez hollers infront of EVERYONE: "Go down there, or go sit over there!! YOU'RE an RN so you should know about HIPAA!!!" I was shocked! The lady was shocked. I immediately sat down, getting info from insurance company on phone.
This Jacqui person (manager) not only was she completely rude, clearly stressed-out, mean..... she absolutely, unequivocally VIOLATED MY HIPAA rights by announcing that I am an RN, while I'm at a pharmacy, picking up my medications, no matter what my meds are! My personal "whoever I am" is private information that identifies me and she completely violated my HIPAA right!!! I will be moving toward disciplinary action. I have made complaint to: customer.support@albertsons.com.... (Letters are always best so please anybody, if you need to complain about mean Jacqui Hernandez, sent an email. Also, the District Manager is Keith Taft. You can also call: (877) Safeway and make a complaint. I did all of the above including filing with the licensing board. I will be completely active with this case and I am not done. She is mean and rude and she should NOT be a manager, unless Safeway is desperate. Maybe that's the case.
*******Incident: 8/27/2026 between approx 12:35 and 12:53 pm. Exact time unknown. I was checked-out at the register by Jill at 12:53 pm. read more
