checking their social media during their lunch break away from their desk.

Explanation:

Medical administrative assistants should maintain professionalism and patient - privacy. Texting parents while with a patient, taking calls from friends while entering health - record info, and taking selfies with patients (especially celebrities) are unprofessional and may violate privacy. Checking social media during a break away from the desk is an appropriate personal activity during non - work time.

Answer:

Checking their social media during their lunch break away from their desk.
