## Resource

Most dental practices love showing off their team on social media. It builds trust, shows off your office culture, and makes your practice feel human. But there is a massive legal blind spot that most owners completely overlook: employee media rights.If you think a standard, generic media release covers you when an employee leaves, you could be setting yourself up for a costly legal battle.In this episode, we sit down with HR compliance expert Kara Kelly to expose the hidden legal landmines of employee social media. From TikTok trends to behind-the-scenes office photos, Kara breaks down why a simple "signature on a line" isn't enough, and how failing to secure a tailored, legally sound agreement can lead to devastating lawsuits, damaged reputations, and lost staff.What We Cover in This Episode:The Employee vs. Patient Release: Why you cannot use the same consent form for your team as you do for your patients.The "After" Problem: What happens to your social media content when an employee quits on bad terms (and why they can force you to take down years of marketing material).Real-World Horror Stories: How dental offices have ended up paying thousands in legal fees over seemingly harmless social media posts.The Culture of Consent: How to introduce media agreements during onboarding in a way that feels respectful and transparent, rather than restrictive.Beyond the Checkbox: Why compliance isn't a one-time task, and how often you need to update your agreements to stay legally protected.
