I Have A Alarming Question About Patient Rights?

I heard this the other day from experience and it alarmed me right to the core. As a nurse, drawing someones blood and dealing with body fluids, I didn’t know that I do now have the right to know if someone has a contageous disease. Including HIV, hepititis, anything I could catch with a needle stick. Does anyone know if this is true? Any info will be appriciated
