ANA’s latest cutting-edge e-publication, provides guidance to registered nurses on using social networking media in a way that protects patients’ privacy and confidentiality. The publication also provides guidance to registered nurses on how to maintain, when using social networking media, the nine provisions of the Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements, the standards found in Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice, and nurses’ responsibility to society as defined in Nursing’s Social Policy Statement: The Essence of the Profession.

Online social networking facilitates collegial communication among registered nurses and provides convenient and timely forums for professional development and education. It also presents remarkable potential for public education and health guidance, contributing to nursing’s online professional presence.
