By , About.com Guide

How are social media being utilized in the healthcare industry? We've explored a variety of ways social media may be used, (including blogs and networking sites). Adding your specific examples and experience could really help other healthcare professionals learn new ways to get the most out of social media, whether it be marketing, recruiting, or communicating with patients, to name a few uses.

One way to use social media is to connect with other members of the healthcare industry - but not necessarily the peers of your own profession! You can join us on Twitter to discuss health care anytime through the perspective of communications & social meda, using the hashtag "#hcsm". Discussions are moderated Sunday nights at 9pm eastern, but social media stimulates a conversation on health care 24/7.
