Social media – What do paediatricians need to know?
Manage episode 414044727 series 3532196
How can child health professionals use social media in a professional capacity - including for public health information and for learning? What are its benefits and what are its perils? And how can you protect yourself as a clinician?
This month on The Paeds Round, Dr Emma Lim and Dr Christo Tsilifis are joined by our multi-talented podcast producer and dermatology registrar, Dr Jonny Guckian, who runs the medical education site, MediSense, and has held numerous social media-facing roles. Jonny, Emma and Christo discuss the good and the bad of social media and offer practical guidance on how you can make the most of these platforms.
