LinkedIn
The
group that I joined in LinkedIn is Heath-care, the reason is that this group has
many interesting topics that deal directly with topics in healthcare. For
example one of the article is from NPR about how DNA test have solved two
medical mysteries. This article and
other like it are very technical in the field of healthcare and I find them
useful as a health care professional. Below is a link to the group page.

The
main reason I chose this group is that it has many different topics of
healthcare not just one topic. This is important because healthcare is a
complex and ever growing profession that needs relevant information in order to
grow. This is true for individuals in the healthcare field as well we need good
reliable information in order to perform well in our profession and groups such
as this help to keep us informed.
One
thing that I have learned from this group is that healthcare if very complex because
it not only includes how the body works but also how the mind works and how
people deal with day to day stress and relationships. This site helps me to tie
it all together and have a deeper perspective about healthcare in general.
Twitter
The
person I am following on twitter is KHNews which is Kaiser Health News. I
joined this group because it covers both policy and politics. Both policy and
politics are very important to healthcare because often politics plays a large
role in policies used by the healthcare industry. To date the largest political
change is Obama care which has shifted major policy throughout the healthcare
system.
