Evidently this wasn't the case. I agree. But some guy working in the
blood-lab or front desk isn't supposed to get this type of access. Something
wasn't right.

It sounds like you do agree. They did overtake the whole system.
"some workstation shouldn't be able
to access any resources like this."
When they shouldn't be able but they did have root access then something was

information, billing records, etc. This needs to be locked down so that
malware and rogue employees can't get anywhere near this stuff.
