Background
Social media use by physicians offers potential benefits but may also be associated with professionalism problems. The objectives of this study were: 1) to examine and compare characteristics of social media use by medical students and faculty; 2) to explore the scope of self- and peer-posting of unprofessional online content; and 3) to determine what actions were taken when unprofessional content was viewed.
ThinkFuture has launched three brand new digital toolkits. Designed for HR professionals, managers and communication teams, the toolkits provide free centralised information, advice and resources to support organisations to bring more young people into the NHS workforce. The toolkits have been developed in partnership with young people and NHS organisations.
Social media is a powerful marketing tool for organisations but it is not without risk. These risks can have a major impact on you, your career and your organisation. And they can happen whether or not you are using social media.
Managing risk in social media helps you analyse and prepare your organisation for the problems that may occur when using social media. It helps you understand how to handle internal social accounts and deal with external social media activity which your organisation may become involved in.
This e-learning course will not only help you to understand, identify and manage risks, but will also guide you in preparing to protect your organisation from damage that may be caused.
Our secure services in Bristol recently hosted a fantastic day celebrating involvement.
Service users, friends, families, staff and charity organisations all came together to fill the training area at Fromeside and hear inspiring talks, chat to people on stalls and most importantly, eat some delicious cakes!
The event offered Red Cross shoulder massages, music, drama, art psychotherapy taster sessions and a chill room where everyone could relax to some music whilst practicing mindfulness. Rethink and Time To Change were amongst 11 stalls offering information on the great involvement opportunities both within and outside of Secure Services.
Throughout January, trusts submitted their entries for the flu fighter monthly reward scheme for the most innovative mythbusting used in local flu campaigns.

NHS Blood and Transplant
This special health authority supplies blood to hospitals in England and North Wales, as well as solid organs across the UK. The trust has been crowned as the winners for its work in surveying their frontline staff to identify circulating flu myths. The team then used this information to create screensavers and staff case studies to emphasise that the flu is more than just a bad cold.

This session provides a snapshot of the global work of innovators, clinicians, patients and digital collaborators who have shared their learning online and explored the possibilities to improve patient care.

The presenters offer their different narratives of change, how this resonates with their communities and highlight analytics that can be used. This is a whistle stop tour of social media innovation which starts with a simple idea and develops to healthcare change with impact.
