If you think blocking is a viable long-term option...

• Surveyed health-related organizations on current posture toward employee social media access
• Journal manuscript being developed based on survey findings
• Developing Employee Access Toolkit
A Balanced Approach to Professionalism• Avoiding faux pas is important but cannot be
the only standard for judging professionalism in social media
• Professionalism is more than the absence of unprofessional conduct
• Professionals have a moral obligation to use available tools effectively on behalf of those they serve
Key Elements• All policies apply in social media, too
• Privacy• Mutual Respect• Computer use
• Generally don’t “friend” patients
• Remember the “front page” rule

Sharing Mayo Clinic - January 2009
Blogs: The Undiscovered Territory• A blog is just an easy-to-publish Web site that
allows comments
• Blogs can match look and feel of your Web site and infuse dynamic content
• Blogs give you a social media “home base”
• Blogs give you much more control over user experience than any other social platform
Sharing Mayo Clinic/Patient Stories Example• Relevant patient stories help patients choose
Mayo Clinic
• Patient stories on MayoClinic.org were formerly freelancer-produced, relatively expensive
• Sharing Mayo Clinic - stories in patients’ own words - launched in 2009
• 2012 Project combined Sharing and legacy stories, featured on .org disease/condition pages through “Mayo Consumer Vocabulary” tagging
