FOAMcastini - Medical Texting

We interrupt our normal core content for this update: Texting amongst medical professionals is ubiquitous; however, given patient privacy laws, many wonder, what is permissible? We discuss a recent article in JAMA by Brian Drolet on this very topic as well as some basic professionalism pearls. Show notes at FOAMcast.org Thanks for listening, Lauren Westafer and Jeremy Faust

Om Podcasten

We believe in the educational merits of Free Open Access Medical education (FOAM), which includes podcasts, blogs, articles on PubMed Central, conferences streamed for free and more. As a result, we would like to encourage others to move beyond quoting podcasts and into the realm of tying “cutting edge” FOAM to the core content. We’ll provide some review and references for listeners to go read. Why, indeed, should we FOAM it alone when FOAM can inspire us to go, read, think, and be excellent?
