Social Patient: Social Media Tips for Healthcare - Scenttrail

Social Patient: Social Media Tips for Healthcare - Scenttrail | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it

Note: May 27th, 2015
I wrote this post at the end of 2012. I was frustrated. My doctors, hospitals and healthcare providers don’t understand “social me”. Convinced recognizing my links, likes and loves in social media is an important part of helping me feel better I wrote Martin’s Hug for Healthcare – the 1,000 word rant. 

Today heard HOPE from my friend Janet Kennedy, founder of http://www.GetSocialHealth.com . Janet told me about the Mayo Clinic's upcoming social media summit. There is hope in the universe.

The Social Patient: How Social Media Marketing Is Changing Health Care

The Social Patient: How Social Media Marketing Is Changing Health Care | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

The social tsunami is here bringing a need for speed and less brand control. The Social Patient is about how health care providers can surf the social media wave instead of being drowned by it.

(From the article): This ScentTrail Marketing piece on how social media marketing is changing health care is not about a place. The Social Patient is about an attitude, a dangerous attitude. It is NOT an attitude health care providers don't know about. What most health care providers are unaware of is the size and speed of The Social Patient tsunami that is hitting now.
