Best Social Media Sites: Health and Wellness

I sometimes find Twitter and Facebook pages that feature great content. These are a few of the best social media sites in the health and wellness industries.

DISCLAIMER: I’m not affiliated with these organizations. I admire their websites, and present them for educational purposes only.

1. MDI (Mount Desert Island) Hospital: With workshops on various aspects of wellness, ads that entice job seekers to find out why MDI is a great workplace, and posts, such as the one for #GivingTuesday (11/28/17) that encourage donors to give and to state why, MDI comes across effectively as a hospital that focuses on health and on fostering a community of caring.

2. Spectrum Medical Group: With safety tips, promo for shows that feature doctors in their practice, and links to information about illnesses and conditions, Spectrum keeps followers in the know. They could try to engage them more and repeat posts less, but overall, they cover the bases well.

3. EMHS of Maine: EMHS of Maine features a mix of company news and spotlights health issues through videos, health tips, and health news; it was touching to see them thank their workers in a Thanksgiving post and veterans in a Veteran’s Day post. That not only appears altruistic, it also makes EMHS look like a caring brand.

4. Penobscot Community Health Care: With items about their services and helpful community news, PCHC creates and builds on a spirit of compassion. It would be good to see some replies to the reviews posted at their page, but overall, they handle their social media content marketing adequately.

5. Sarasota Memorial Health Care System: This Florida-based hospital and trauma center includes hashtags with news about upcoming events, medical treatments, and featured employees, comments from patients, and more. Their posts promote while providing interesting content, and generate an image of a vibrant healthcare system that works together to put the “heal” in “health.” 🙂
