This document summarizes a social media masterclass given by Joe McCrea. The masterclass covered understanding what social media platforms the NHS is currently using, debunking myths about social media skills, practicing good social media behaviors, producing quality social media content, avoiding common pitfalls, finding and interacting with key accounts, and leveraging mobile and real-time engagement. Attendees participated in activities to demonstrate cluedo-style engagement, grabbing attention on social media, closing follow gaps between local organizations, and suggesting topics for a clinical senate to advise on using the hashtag #swdigiday.

@jbmccrea
•Because social media has moved from being
the new kid on the block into the mainstream
•Because in the current climate everyone and
everything needs to show real value
•Because social media can genuinely make a
difference
Why do we need to get real?

“There are increasing signs that
the NHS is finally ready to step
up to the mark and bring social
media into mainstream core
business operations, delivering
real value and improvement
across activities such as
listening, engagement,
improvement and collaborative
innovation.”
On the brink….
