“More and more data tells us that the vast majority of the population searches for medical information through search engines and social networks. It is important that medical information is given by those who have competence and authority, i.e. the doctor” who, however, ” at the moment, it must comply with a whole series of rules, reported in the code of ethics, which apply both in the clinic and in any mode of communication. These guidelines are absolutely important and must be maintained, but being modern doctors also requires us to improve , broaden our type of communication” and therefore move some boundaries “a little further”, “always maintaining ethical correctness and respect for the privacy of our patients. We have thus begun a journey to create guidelines, together with Aida , to regulate this new communication model which is absolutely part of the daily life of all dermatologists, both inside and outside the clinic”. She said it Federica Ostidermatologist and on social media @latuadermatologa, participating in the Symposium ‘Code of ethics and social media’, during the national congress of the Italian Association of Outpatient Dermatologists (Aida) which was held in Riccione.
Today “about thirty Italian dermatologists” are on social media, he underlines, and “all together we are working to create guidelines together with Aida, to try to regulate this new communication model which is absolutely part of the daily life of all dermatologists both inside and outside the clinic we will try to draw up a whole series of very practical rules, as is our habit, to also give guidance to all new dermatologists who want to start this communication model”, but above all “to give. safety and comfort to the people who follow us, so that the information they are using is serious information, which – he concludes – they can trust”.
