Social Media FishMy good friends at Social Fish, Maddie Grant and Lindy Dreyer, recently published a fantastic white paper titled "Social Media, Risk, and Policies for Associations" - along with Croydon Consulting. While the publication is directed at associations and non-profits, there are many parallels in the senior living, retirement community, and long-term care worlds. If you've been trying to put together a social media policy for your company, this is a go-to document that will be a big help.

Many of the biggest concerns for companies in the senior living and long-term care space about adopting social media are related to privacy, HIPAA, and risk management issues. While the definitive guide book for social media policy in our industry has yet to be written, this white paper provides us with a good place to start, and will surely be used as a reference when it is written.  

Congrats to Maddie and Lindy at Social Fish for a great piece of work! Here it is for your viewing pleasure:  Social Media, Risk, and Policies for Associations
