Our Human Resources Department is doing some research on personal blogs of employees and asked me to post this question - Do other hospitals have policies or guidelines that reference personal blogs of their employees - if the blogs contain information relating to patients (no names listed) and other employees they come into contact with - describing details related to the patient case and/or the facility; and/or co-workers) - possibly compromising patient privacy, possible liability for the facility, possible damage to the reputation of the facility or other co-workers referenced in the blog, ethical boundaries crossed, ect.
