Event Details

Please join the Social Media Club of Detroit as we present an exciting panel of healthcare professionals, who will speak on the topic of social media and the medical business. It will be held at the Kresge Eye Institute on February 29 from 6:30 to 8:30. Refreshments will be provided.

 

Putting the MED in Social MEDia

Going beyond the usual face-to-face doctor’s office chats and traditional hospital marketing methods, the world of social media has opened the doors to new ways of communication in the health community. So with more and more companies increasingly using sites like Facebook and Twitter on a regular daily basis, a good number of health/hospital systems have caught on to it as well and as a result have started to put the "MED" in the social media movement.

This panel will explore the various ways that local doctors and health/hospital systems have used the medium to reach patients and consumers, spread awareness about healthy living and help boost employee morale.
