🌟 Just returned from an incredible weekend at the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) Health Academy Conference in Nashville, TN! 🌟 I had the privilege to attend with my colleagues Lindsay Durkalec and Lisa Finnegan, MSEd, and meet some of the brightest minds in health care PR from across the country. It was a whirlwind of insights, networking, and inspiration. Here are some key takeaways: 🎤 Engaging Speakers: Some truly enlightening talks, including one on building and leveraging credibility in times of distrust. Transparency and engagement are the currency of trust. Annual pulse surveys and stakeholder interviews are powerful tools. 📈 Emerging Trends in Health Care PR: The keynote session on Chat GPT, generative AI, and health care was eye-opening. We're on the brink of a revolution, and tools like Midjourney, Krisp, Jasper, and PromptPal are game-changers. 📚 Case Studies and Best Practices: Learning from successful case studies, like a crisis communications plan after a tornado strike and the complete rebrand of the National Bleeding Disorders Foundation, was incredibly valuable. 🤝 Networking: I had the pleasure of meeting professionals from all over, including a woman from Alaska who took three flights to attend! 🎵 Fun: Not only did we get to network at the National Museum of African American Music, but we had the chance to explore its interactive history of American music. I'd love to share more about my experiences and learnings from the conference, so feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want to dive deeper into any of the topics discussed. Here's to continuous learning and growth! 🚀 #HealthcarePR #PRSAHealthAcademy #NashvilleConference #ProfessionalDevelopment

📣 Calling all marketers in the health care industry 📣 What conferences have you been to that have really moved the needle for you at work? I love a social media conference, but let's face it, those rarely talk about how unique the health care market is and how many of the usual tips and tricks don't apply. I'm specifically interested in learning more about: - Leveraging social media to promote academic medicine and increase alumni engagement - Recruiting residents and fellows to train in the midwest - Increasing engagement with internal communications Drop links and tags in the comments, and don't forget to tell me your biggest takeaway from the conference/s you're recommending! #healthcaremarketing #socialemediamarketing #academicmedicine #internalcommunications

Building interprofessional teams with ease | Bridging science to practice | Team development strategies | Patient Advocate | Let's build high performing teams together!
Keeping it Simple on Saturday. You have seen them. I have seen them. Conferences being labeled as interprofessional, but there is no time for interprofessional engagement. I appreciate conferences that welcome multiple health professions. It is a great potential foundation for interprofessional interactions. 2 ideas to elevate multidisciplinary conferences to support interprofessional engagement: 1. Ask speakers to integrate small group discussions to enhance learning of the material. 2. Create time and planned interprofessional opportunities in the conference agenda. What are some other ideas? Let’s support each other by sharing ideas and perspectives.

Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health #CenterForHealthCommunication : #Engaging #with #the #Press: #A #Guide #for #Perplexed #Readers #and #Sources "The COVID-19 pandemic laid bare #how #little #we #have #invested #in #preparing #public #health #professionals #to #navigate #today’s #media #environment. Brilliant scientific minds interviewed by the press spoke in complex, impenetrable jargon. They conveyed certainty where it was not justified. They were caught off-guard by misinformation. And they missed opportunity after opportunity to communicate how science truly works. These communication missteps should have surprised no one. We train #scientists and #health #professionals to collect and analyze evidence. Yet we’re far less intentional about equipping them #to #credibly #communicate it #in an #increasingly #skeptical #and #fragmented #world. But make no mistake: We will find ourselves staring down the barrel of another pandemic. And next time, we must do better.

✍ I see so many of my clinician colleagues working toward change in healthcare while also seeking joy outside of it: in arts, writing, podcasting, building, community, coaching, consulting, founding, and investing, among many other things. It's inspiring. I hope to always create space for you. Let’s not see each other as invading space, rather, let’s create space for each other. 💜 P.S. check out the sponsor of this newsletter chapter, Career Cliniq and Dr Ruth Vo, PhD who is helping healthcare professionals figure out a path that harmonizes their personal values, evolving identity, and professional aspirations.

As part of Public Relations Society of America (PRSA)'s upcoming Health Academy Conference, guests have been encouraged to take the Shapes Assessment: https://lnkd.in/gbw8qf9S Although assessments like these are never going to tell you who you are, they can be interesting to see how others may potentially see you and your strengths (and more importantly, your weaknesses). Here is my summary and it was really accurate, the internal struggle is real. LOL What is your profile? #PRSA
