  4. Palmetto Health is Leader - Competitors Trying to Highlight Specialties Palmetto Health Competitive Palmetto Health is a leader in the market, doing many things right in terms of social media. While the data shows Palmetto Health as the overall leader in the marketplace, the results show that Providence is trying to position their facility as the leaders in Cardiac Care. The data indicates more credible conversations surrounding Providence overall, as far as news coverage and online feedback about the expertise of the facility. Lexington is the facility with the least amount of social media and online chatter. This hospital has low social media activity and most of the conversations surrounding this brand are a result of healthcare directory listings. Both Lexington and Providence fall far short compared Palmetto Health in terms of the social media and online presence, in terms of the level of activity AND the content of the conversations surrounding their brands.

  5. Providence Hospital – Highlights Palmetto Health Competitive While online conversations surrounding Palmetto Health feature many examples highlighting credibility in the field of healthcare, one of the most influential or “loud” news stories found about Providence is listed below. This news story is about George Zara, new CEO of Providence Hospitals getting special management training — from a horse named Spooky Spirit. http://www.charlestonbusiness.com/news/92-taking-the-reins-at-providence?rss=0 Providence is trying to reposition its facility as a leader in cardiac care and the data indicates several news items and online references to this new positioning.

  6. Lexington Hospital – Highlights Palmetto Health Competitive Unlike Providence, Lexington has a Twitter presence and the Twitter results for this facility were highly influential for the brand. The problem for Lexington is that there is just not a high volume of chatter for the facility, in terms of how patients feel about the Lexington and there are not many conversations surrounding the brand that highlight strong expertise. There is not a high degree of negative or positive chatter about Lexington but there isn’t a high degree of positive conversations about Lexington. People just don’t TALK much about Lexington in the social media and online space---which is a deadly trend for a healthcare facility. Social media can be a powerful marketing tool for hospitals because of the power of word-of-mouth recommendations. Lexington is trying to carve out a niche of expertise in the marketplace but the message is not consistent and the brand message is lost in the noise of the Internet. Here are two examples of Lexington’s attempt to position their expertise in healthcare: Lexington Medical to perform its first heart surgeries http://www.thestate.com/2012/03/18/2197346/after-10-year-battle-lexington.html Lexington Medical Center Committed To Incredible Oncology Care http://agapeseniorsc.wordpress.com/2012/03/14/lexington-medical-center-committed-to-incredible-oncology-care Lexington Overview
