North Carolina Hospital Features Patient Blogs on Its Web Site

I have been a little busy these last two days so I have been a little remiss about posting a few thing I thought would be of interest.

This came through on the Medlib list Wednesday.

North Carolina Hospital Features Patient Blogs on Its Web Site
"High Point Regional Health System in North Carolina is allowing patients to share their hospital experiences via blogs on the hospital's Web site, the Greensboro News & Record reports. The hospital introduced the blogs after hospital research showed that writing helps patients feel less anxious."

Wow what a creative and interesting way to use blogs in healthcare.
