@EricaFayFNP Great point Erica. I treat youth patients with mental illness and they are a vulnerable population who can be negatively effected by social media.

A3: Approximately, 4 billion people use social media. 51.5 million US adults experience mental illness each year. Sharing mental health content through social media opens the dialogue & reduces the stigma #OrgLead21 #JHSON https://t.co/gXInP7Bont

@mbg_hopkinsdnp I agree. Shared personal experiences are so impactful, especially regarding mental illness. Personal experiences help reduce the stigma.

@LBHopkinsSON1 @kmciltr1 @VanessaBattist4 @grubblisam12 @JHUNursing Absolutely, was such a great resource when people were homebound and in isolation. Social media is an effective way to keep people up to date and informed.

@kmciltr1 6. SOP Laws:While temporary SOP waivers were established during the pandemic, it also demonstrated that non-physician professionals such as advanced practice nurses offer safe, effective healthcare services with excellent outcomes #JHSON #HealthPolicy21 https://t.co/jncEYGUdib

@OOkurume @camille_canlas @kmciltr1 Agreed Onome! Access to mental healthcare is so important...... Covid has shown us that it can be done effectively through tele platforms! #JHSON #HealthPolicy21

[Janine DeSimone @JDeSimone1722]

@kmciltr1 3. I am passionate about reducing the stigma of mental illness and helping people access quality mental healthcare. We need people to speak up and influence policymakers to remedy these problems through legislation. #JHSON #HealthPolicy21 https://t.co/p9miLaVPAA

@kmciltr1 As a Psychiatric NP, I have used social media to increase mental health awareness and literacy. These platforms allow for information sharing, help educate people, and bring awareness about many important health issues, including mental illness #JHSON #HealthPolicy21

@ewelch412 @Dimitra_Mammos @kmciltr1 It has absolutely sparked my interest as well! So important to have our voices heard #JHSON #HealthPolicy21
