  3. The Social Media Landscape • Social media tools are predominately used to facilitate communication and improve knowledge. • Social media is primarily used by healthcare organizations for community engagement (fundraising, customer service) providing news and information, patient education, and advertising. • While the use of social media is widespread, the tools suggest the sustainability for use in a range of professional activities. • Most widely used venues for physicians are online communities (read, research, network, communicate with colleagues on patient issues). http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23887004 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23388291
