I support this amendment for personal reasons. I've worked in the ER, yet mostly MEDSURGE recently. I'm also a travel nurse. Due to some of the patient demographics including drug/ETOH abusers, multiple "frequent flyers", psych/mental health patiens and questionable family members, I've been asked about my personal dating life, am I on Facebook and/or other social media. I've worked ER where nurses do not have their last name on badges. I believe this keeps all nurses safe and cuts down on 'stalking' via social media, etc.
