I’m in Milwaukee this morning for the Wisconsin Healthcare Public Relations and Marketing Society (WHPRMS) annual meeting. It’s exciting to be here presenting to a group to which I spoke three years ago, just when I had begun blogging.
When I was with the group at Green Lake in 2006, I wrote a few posts you can find here.
You also can follow the tweets from #WHPRMS and contribute to the discussion.
Here are my slides:
At our #MayoRagan09 health care social media summit yesterday, Angie Anania from HealthONE Presbyterian/St. Luke’s Medical Center in Denver told her story of using Twitter relating to a surgical procedure, and the collaboration she did with the local CBS affiliate. I asked if she would be willing to share her experience more broadly, so here it is, compliments of the Flip:
I think her point about collaborating with local media in a win-win application of social media tools makes lots of sense. What do you think? What other examples of this have you seen?
My colleagues from our employee communication group and media support services at Mayo Clinic presented this morning at the #MayoRagan09 social media summit in Scottsdale. They told about their most recent project, a completely opt-in email newsletter called “In the Loop.” See the screen shot above (click to enlarge) or download a sample below.
Here are the slides for my presentation on Monday, Oct. 5 at the Health Care Social Media Summit we’re hosting at Mayo Clinic’s campus in Scottsdale, Arizona. It’s been a pleasure working with Ragan Communications to develop the program, and I’m looking forward to presenting and to hearing from the other speakers. I’m sure we will hear about lots of great health care social programs and that it will provide inspiration.
With more than 130 slides in my one-hour presentation, I hope to create sensory overload while at the same time inspiring participants to both see the possibilities inherent in social media and to believe that it’s something they can do. By having the slides posted here, it will illustrate the value of Slideshare.net and also will enable participants to fully engage in the discussion without feeling a need to take notes compulsively. They can tweet updates as they hear interesting tidbits (as I recommended here), but can know that everything they’re seeing will be available for review at a more leisurely pace.
Update: Here’s the presentation that I failed to insert originally. Thanks @PhilBaumann for pointing that out:
Idaho has one of the unique state associations for hospital or health care marketing and public relations. It actually has a vowel in its acronym, unlike Florida (FSHMPRM), Wisconsin (WHPRMS) and Minnesota (MHSCN). But then again, they don’t really have a choice since their state begins with a vowel.
Here are the slides I’m showing as part of my presentation to ISHMPR today. You can follow and participate in the discussion on Twitter using the #ISHMPR hashtag.
