Internet or bust

Posted by caroldimon on January 12, 2013 at 9:50 AM

In any job today, we rely on research especially internet searches eg Doctor/ nurse/lecturers. All at some time may be confronted by a condition of which they know very little. After all, they cannot know everything and somebody who claims to do so is extremely dangerous. Yes at times, Doctors for example, inform patients to read the internet to find out about their condition. This too is very dangerous. An untrained member of the public would not know which information is correct and which to discard. How can they read research papers for example? It is even worse when they start looking up side efects of drugs- they would never take them if they accepted all 20 side effects on the internet. Professionals need to do the research themselves and discuss with individuals/patients.
