All professionals today, including nurses, need to be mindful of how they use social media, both in their personal and professional lives. As a nurse, you have a duty to maintain patient confidentiality. Always respect that and refrain from sharing any patient or work-related details on your social media profiles. Maintain a professional appearance across all platforms. Be aware that potential employers today often check a job candidate’s social media profile, so that should always be in mind when posting or sharing content. Adjust the settings on your social media profile to keep it private so that your personal information stays out of public view.
