Patients Beware of Medical Errors | Socyberty

Patients Beware of Medical Errors | Socyberty



In general, we hold our doctors in awe. We look up to them and trust them with our families health. Even so, physicians do make mistakes. In serious health issues, a second and third opinion is appropriate. Mistakes can be found in the doctors office just as surely as in the general population.The medical profession has come a long way in the last fifty years and we can be thankful. Most of the old fashioned treatments were based on complacency, ignorance and lack of progress.

Bullying in The Workplace | Socyberty


It’s traumatic going into work every day knowing you will have to deal with a bully. Some people leave jobs because of it. More often, especially in these economic times, employees put up with bullying in order to bring home a pay check. It’s the company leaders who should be responsible and disallow any bullying whatsoever. Often they turn the other way because it’s easier not to deal with it.

Bullying must not be tolerated under any circumstances.
