Before You Post: Professional Standards and Social Media in Healthcare

SUMMARY:
Social media has become a powerful influence on how the public perceives healthcare and nursing practice. Viral videos often present brief, emotionally engaging snapshots of clinical situations, yet they frequently omit critical context related to patient safety, ethical decision making, and standards of care. This podcast explores how social media content can misrepresent real clinical practice, examines the ethical and legal risks for nurses, and provides guidance on maintaining professionalism while engaging in digital spaces. The discussion aims to equip healthcare professionals with the tools to critically evaluate online content and uphold the integrity of the nursing profession.
