The use of social media in intensive care has increased steadily since their development in the early 2000s. Usage of social media platforms are now part of everyday life for a sizable proportion of the world’s population. The success of social media relies upon developing a culture where openness and sharing are the norm. This is at odds with traditional medical ethical values such as confidentiality and privacy. Social media can be used for both social and professional purposes, which can lead to unhelpful blurring of lines between personal and professional roles. This chapter discusses guidelines for use of social media for communication purposes by healthcare professionals in the United Kingdom, the benefits and pitfalls of the use of social media for medical education, and the legal aspects of use of social media with respect to intensive care.

The paper examined how the abduction of the schoolgirls generated responses and support for the rescue of the abducted girls from people and organization from different parts of the globe.

Methodologically, the paper utilized secondary sources of data to analyze the phenomenon studied. The paper revealed that the development and innovations in information and communication technology which dismantled traditional and colonial boundaries enabled people to express support, solidarity and assist victims of conflict who resides millions of Kilometers away. This shows that Internet-based communications technology has reduced the distance of time and space that characterised traditional mass media. The campaign for the release of the schoolgirls on the social media platforms particularly Twitter and Facebook has tremendously contributed to the release of some of them. Furthermore, the girls freed from abduction have received proper attention: education and reintegration programmes which enable them to start post-abduction life. In this regard, social media has become a tool for supporting the government in moments of security challenges which the Bring Back Our Girls campaign attracted foreign and domestic assistance to Nigeria in the search of the abducted girls and the fight against the Islamist insurgents.
