There are several new additions to IHA’s list of Iowa hospitals using social media.

• Mercy Medical Center – Sioux City is on Twitter and Facebook
• Humboldt Hospital has a blog
• Pella Regional Health Center is on Twitter
• Crawford County Memorial Hospital is on Twitter
• Great River Medical Center is on Twitter
• Story County Medical Center is on Twitter

This latest wave brings a flurry of tweets, increasing our totals to 13 hospitals in Iowa using Twitter.

How do you see hospitals being able to use social media?

Are these hospitals doing things right? Could they be doing things better? If your hospital was on Twitter, Facebook or somewhere else, what would you expect of them?

IHA is interested in hearing your thoughts and I will continue updating the list of Iowa hospitals using social media to keep everyone informed.
