We are kicking off with Tweet chat number 2 on " Health Care Social Media Buddy Mentoring" (#hcsmbm) at 12 CT, Wednesday May 1 st - (11 am MT, 10 am PT, 1pm ET, 6pm GMT, 7pm, CET)
Thank you so much to everyone who hung out with us last week
during our brainstorm session. Looking back over the transcript what jumps out, and to quote @JBBC ,"
is that this whole idea of developing a buddy mentoring system to help those who are in need of
assistance to navigate social media sites for health care information", has really
resonated with people and has started a really cool and interesting
conversation.
@Mdigitalife tweeted @Naveen101 and myself a few days ago and said “how do we make this real?” ,
I think this is where we need to head next. There was a lot of chat last week
about the start point for #some mentoring, and we agreed that it does have to be
wound all the way back to off line in some cases, as some patients really are
pretty much off line. We talked about mentoring up the platforms, for those already on social media but not getting all the benefits. There was
a lot of interest in what Facebook – Twitter mentoring might look like. We also
asked what about Health care providers? Where is their involvement in all this?
There was a lot of agreement that it was a key factor in on boarding more
patients to social media.
There are so many strands to this conversation and so many ways to discuss further how we make it “ real” and help bring more patients in to the social media conversation and all it has to offer them. Next week we want to take a piece of all of this and keep our objectives for the chat to how can doctors on board more patients? How do we support peer to peer mentoring?
This week’s chat questions come from the awesome @randy_chalfant, he put these together for us and if we share them now we hope
some of you can start chewing on them before Wednesday.
Q1. Everyone’s needs
are different. What are the keys to identifying each patient’s needs?
Q2. What guidelines need to be developed to deliver
meaningful and individualized support?
Q3. How can we categorize what a doctor and a mentor offer,
to match patient’s individual needs?
Q4. How do we track progress and make adjustments when
necessary
Hopefully we will start moving up a notch from brainstorming
next week, and if you missed last week go check out #hcsmbm so ya
can get up to speed before Wednesday. If you get any ideas before Wednesday throw them out
and use the hash tag!
