If it’s any consolation we only need a few individuals making progress for humanity. We have always had a large percentage of people that don’t add value and we are still making progress
I’d actually believe it if they looked like they had a long shift, and a lot of hospital shifts are already 12 hours, at least in my experience supporting various medical systems (as in groups of hospitals, clinics, etc).
Then they can have their scrubs on for a short little “check in” with viewers. Most people who wear scrubs sweat their asses off all day, and most likely have at least one strangers bodily fluid on them. They change out of it.
My wife, for example once came home, stripped in the laundry room and tossed it in the wash, then went to shower. She wouldn’t speak of what happened. Her position is also unlikely to deal with bodily fluids, but there we were. She also carried a pair of scrubs in her car trunk in case she needed to change mid shift.
Shit, sometimes quite literally, happens in hospitals and no one is immune.
My sister is the same, she’s an ER nurse in a high traffic area and almost always strips in the garage and throw’s everything in a hot wash. Based on her stories, I’d be burning a few of the scrubs lol.
From one Australian woman to another, she should have used that energy and tried acting instead.
Everybody plays a character of the person they want to present to the world on social media, so there needs to be more awareness that even if you can see their faces and hear their voices, you still can’t blindly trust people to be who they claimed to be online, and you should always exercise a healthy dose of skepticism on what you read or watched.
Trust me, after all, why would Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie ever lie to you?
Every molecule in my brain screams about it’s not. But there’s still that tiny little comedian in my brain that goes, “what if there were a dinosaur in that lake?”
“Defence barrister Erasmus Lovell-Jones said his client had an underlying psychological fragility which made it difficult for her to say no in social situations.
He said Karezi – who was studying a bachelor’s degree in health science – met a person who believed she was studying medicine, and when she did not correct them it spawned a misunderstanding that opened doors for her.”
What kind of horse shit defense is that? Someone should check if this defense attorney has underlying phycological fragility themself.
His job is to defend her to the best of his ability. If there is no good defense for what she did then he is obligated to make a bad one as long as that defense doesn’t involve direct lies.
In their defence, this is their only legal defence so they’re basically trying to worm their way out getting in trouble for being a liar so I’m not too sure they’re concerned about using made up and exaggerated statements for things that are subjective. It’s also a lawyer saying this, I’d argue that lawyers lean conservative but have no idea really. Also, from what I’ve seen when a liberal does this they’re weak and when a conservative does this it’s smart or playing the system, it’s always been a bad faith argument anyway
We had someone in our online friends group saying she was a physician as well. It began to sound weirder and weirder based on some wrong medical stuff she was saying and because we found out about a friend of her and could narrow down her age. Turned out she was I think doing her first medical education year for the second time
The crime imho is not cosplaying as a doctor on Instagram but applying for medical jobs with a fake resume with fake degrees
I see nothing wrong on the screenshots of the now deleted Instagram profile, she’s doing paid modeling “this nail polish is so pretty”, “this scrub is so comfy” or saying the usual bullshit “remember to eat 2 fruit a day” but nowhere where she’s claiming to be a doctor or giving dangerous medical advice. Less dangerous than “doctor” Oz in the States.
if you get a job as a project manager in an hospital just because you knew that they didn’t check and lied to have 3 medical degrees, that’s a worse problem
Doctor Oz is actually a doctor though, despite everything. Used to be one of the most respected cardiothoracic surgeons in the world. Then his tv show happened…
the Facebook post has definitely got some misleading wording, though. “Trust me I know many physicians delay self care when we have 100 items on our plate”, for example, sounds like she’s trying to imply that she’s one of the physicians without explicitly saying it.
Misrepresentation membership to a professional organisation that’s regulated (in this case, Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency regulates it) is illegal.
Oof. She is a student of health science. I wonder if her school will kick her out, because she didn’t just lie a few times, she went 80 posts deep and even took sponsorship deals during the pandemic.
Ooof. I wonder if she was going to try to be a doctor… and I wonder how ethics boards and such will view actions like these. Probably just blew up her entire career with some stupidity.
She even applied for jobs, what is wrong with these people? It’s not only tik tok, but didn’t any family member saw her? And stop her? They should also start asking for certification copies.
More than ask for certification copies, which can be easily faked, setup a way for hospitals to check degrees on an online database. We’re not in the 1960s anymore
I thought there was? The universities here have online databases where you type in the person's name and it tells you their degrees from that university.
No, both sides are. It’s not okay to pretend to be a doctor and masquerade paid product promotion as medical advise.
But it’s also inherently not okay to look at TikTok (or something comparable) for medical advise, that’s just obvious bullshit. And any even remotely reasonable person should intuitively know that.
