There has been some articles surfacing about Doctors and Therapists becoming "friends" with patients on Facebook and in our case Horse Therapy. I find this extremely interesting as the outcomes can be very good or very weird in most cases, from surveys. Here is a small article written on this topic of Facebook friending in a "professional" enviorment...

What are your thoughts on this very close relationship? Should it only be maintained while you are physically present with the patient? Or always?
In my opinion, Doctors and Therapists should not "friend" patients on Facebook unless they fully understand the information and inner circle they are letting them in on. As an alternative, they should make a Facebook "Page", like the Pegasus one, and stay in contact with them there!
Pegasus is an organization that brings recovery through Horse Therapy andEquine Courses to help people achieve an addiction cure! Visit PegasusEct.com for more information! :)
