Social Media Awareness for Regulated Healthcare Professionals.
This learning module was produced in collaboration with six other health regulatory Colleges in Ontario. Numerous examples and case-based scenarios are included to illustrate social media use in health care and to help you reflect on your own use of social media in personal and professional practice.
The module does not replace your professional obligation to review and understand relevant professional standards of practice and legislation. Rather, it encourages you to apply these standards, legislation and principles to the Social Media environment, thereby establishing risk management strategies to help maintain professional reputations and appropriate professional relationships in your practice.
