Pre-Summit Workshop: Social Media for Health Care
Most healthcare and public health organizations who are trying to communication with healthcare consumers share these problems: “our website hasn’t been touched in three years”; “we set up a Facebook page but don’t know what to do with it”; and “what exactly is Twitter and how do we use it?” With 61% of American adults looking online for health information, healthcare organizations need a Web strategy and healthcare professionals need to understand the latest technologies to plan and execute health communication initiatives. There can be a risk in not embracing the Web if other health organizations are and if healthcare consumers expect it. Yet it is difficult to decide which of the rapidly evolving Web technologies to select and how to use them to provide effective health communication, especially as part of a coherent Web strategy.

Twitter, Facebook, and blogs are the best ways to reach many healthcare consumers. In this workshop you will learn what they are, why you should use them, and how to start using them.

Attend this workshop to:
  • Develop and implement a Web strategy to drive your organization’s online presence, specifically the processes for selecting, using, managing, and evaluating the effectiveness of Web technologies for health communication.
  • Understand the resources necessary for effective use of your Web strategy.
  • Review and analyze case studies from organizations to illustrate initiatives with a discussion of what worked and recommended improvements
  • Hear insights on how healthcare consumers search and how to reach them, health reporting, and graphic design for health Web sites.
