Employee and background checks
Be conscious of your online image.Employers may find information about you online that could prove to be advantageous(e.g., professional-looking photos, information on your extracurricular activities such as sports or volunteer work)
BUT material that portrays you in an unprofessional or controversial light could be detrimental.

Employee and background checks
Real life examples1. an employer who turned down an applicant after
discovering that he had used Facebook to criticise previous employers,
2. a doctor who missed out on a job because the doctor’s online activities revealed an interest in witchcraft,
3. and a female psychiatrist who failed to gain employment after a recruiting agency found explicit pictures on MySpace of her intoxicated.

Patient “friends”
You get a friend request on a social networking site from someone whose name sounds very familiar, but they have a photo of a dog as their profile picture. You accept the request.After looking through their profile page, you realise that it is actually one of your previous patients. The patient sends you a message to let you know that they cannot make their next clinic appointment, but would like to know their histology results from a test ordered while the patient was in hospital.
The patient also throws in a cheeky comment about some photos they saw of you wearing swimmers at the beach.

Defamation
Dear Emergency Registrar,Thanks a million for misdiagnosing my patient’sperforated bowel as constipation and treating aggressivelywith laxatives. I’m sure she appreciated the subsequentcardiac arrest and multiorgan failure. Don’t worry, she justneeds a new set of kidneys and a liver and she’ll be right.And with that kind of performance, I’m sure you can helpher acquire them.Kind regards,Lowly intern

What have I learned from this? I realize that one needs to be careful with comments placed on social media. While Ms. Thomas has likely helped many patients through her blog, my comments were greatly misconstrued. It was certainly not my intention to cause such a furor. I am stunned how a 3-tweet interaction can lead to such a defaming and inflammatory blog response from someone I have never met with, spoken to or interacted with beyond a total of 400 characters. A reputation is a lifelong and daily building process. To have it torn apart in a very public way is extremely damaging and upsetting.
