When working with the vulnerable sector, how does social media fit into professionalism and regulations?

I think when it comes to working with vulnerable groups, such as the elderly and children and the disabled. Social media must be careful to protect their privacy. Be careful about sharing personal information. On social media, try to avoid sharing too much personal details such as ID numbers, phone numbers, home addresses, etc. Such information may be utilized by unscrupulous people.


Pay attention to online etiquette. Avoid posting overly personal or sensitive information on social media, such as family conflicts, health conditions, etc. Try to maintain a positive and healthy online image.


The authenticity of the messages is also noteworthy because of the fact that they are facing a vulnerable group. Social media can be a valuable platform for sharing educational content relevant to disadvantaged groups. However, this content should be accurate and informative. False news should not be allowed to deceive them. This is because they may lack a way to verify the authenticity of the message.

There are also problems associated with using social media communication in educational settings. For example, safety issues. Social media is from the internet.

Usually I can’t punch out and leave successfully. This is unfriendly to our staff. Therefore, our internal app is updated all the time.
