Social media to increase patient safety?

Social media has accomplished a lot of things; created celebrities, added dictionary entries, and provided billion dollar valuations. But did you ever imagine that social media would increase your safety as a patient?

The latest project that I am working on is Patient Safety First BC, and it intends to do just that.

Patient Safety First BC is a public awareness initiative in support of a regulatory college for Medical Radiation and Laboratory Technicians (MRTs and MLTs respectively). These are the people performing MRIs, CT scans, blood tests and more, and yet they are not licensed to practice in BC by a regulatory body. When I have my health at stake, I want to be certain that only the most qualified individuals perform my tests. A regulatory college will ensure that this is always the case.

Canada Day 1st July 2011

Happy Canada Day everyone

I hope we all will have a great and peaceful day.

Here in Vancouver BC it is a bit chilly and cloudy today, but we hope the sun will show up maybe a bit later.

There are lots of parties in the city and of course fireworks tonight at the Canada Place.

So I don’t want to keep you to long from what ever you are doing today and will end this post with the Lyrics of O Canada!

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

NAFSA 2011 in Vancouver – Simok33 says Welcome

This year, the annual NAFSA conference takes place in Vancouver BC – Canada. As I mentioned before in some of my previous Blog posts. Many of you know, that I support Education via SocialVibe for some time. If you check out my profile http://www.socialvibe.com/simok33 you can help me, helping children in the developing world to get the education they need. SocialVibe has many sponsors such as Ford, Windows, Nestle, abc, Apple to name just a few. Those companies may look via SocialVibe for an online survey or place just an online ad. For every person who is watching that ad or is doing that survey via my profile I earn points for my cause. Beside earning point via SocialVibe to support Education, I also work as Public Relations and IT Manager for INTERNeX International Exchange, who helps students and young professionals to gain work experience in Canada or in New Zealand. They help them to find accommodation as well as the right internship that fits with their professional background.

As a supporter of education and being proud to have the privilege to live in one of the best place on earth, I think you can understand that I am very happy to have the NAFSA conference here, in Vancouver BC – Canada.
