Our commitments
Patient privacy and professional integrity are non-negotiable on this platform.
No patient identification
Never use real names, dates of birth, addresses, or any detail that could identify a patient. Always anonymize completely before posting.
No location details
Avoid specific hospitals, clinics, cities or regions that could narrow down a patient identity.
Professional respect
This platform exists to broaden perspectives, not to criticize colleagues. Engage with curiosity and openness toward other disciplines.
No clinical advice
Discussions are for professional learning and reflection only. Nothing shared here constitutes clinical advice or replaces professional judgment.
Counter confirmation bias
Actively seek out perspectives that challenge your own. This platform exists precisely because no single discipline has all the answers.
Evidence matters
Ground your contributions in evidence where possible. Share sources when you can. Be honest about uncertainty.
Our commitment as this platform grows
PATH B is currently in an early test phase. If this platform gains meaningful traction, we commit to implementing full GDPR compliance, proper data processing agreements, and professional legal review of all privacy infrastructure before expanding. Patient privacy will always be our primary obligation — not an afterthought.
Before every post
Ask yourself: could anyone identify this patient from what I have written? If yes, anonymize further before posting.
