From misuse of alcohol and illicit drugs to the non-medical use of prescription opioid medications, communities across the nation are experiencing a crisis of epidemic proportions. Health providers and small community hospitals face a challenge that\u2019s almost too big to handle.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to substance abuse, raising awareness and improving education about prevention and treatment are key steps to tackle the problem.<\/p>\n<p>But how do hospitals get people to pay attention to this information?<\/p>\n<p>They use social media.<\/p>\n<p>Many social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter, are powerful communication tools. Content posted on these digital channels often reaches more people than even television.<\/p>\n<p>Think of this. You\u2019re concerned your partner is addicted to opioids and you don\u2019t know what to do. If you\u2019re like many people, you will click on a story about addiction in your news feed, hoping it provides you with information that will help you help your partner.<\/p>\n<p>Hospitals and mental health treatment centers are starting to recognize the value of posting behavioral health content on social media. But many don\u2019t have the resources to create relevant content to share.<\/p>\n<p>Baldwin Publishing\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/wp.baldwinpublishing.com\/behavioral-health-marketing\/\">behavioral health content<\/a> can help. We develop medically-reviewed content about substance abuse and addiction, as well as depression, suicide, anxiety and other mental health conditions. Our white-labeled articles, quizzes, infographics and videos are filled with helpful and easy-to-read information that is compelling and shareable.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/archives.drugabuse.gov\/news-events\/news-releases\/2014\/10\/using-social-media-to-better-understand-prevent-treat-substance-use\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">news release by the National Institutes of Health (NIH)<\/a>, Dr. Wen-ying (Sylvia) Chou, program director in NCI\u2019s Health Communications and Informatics Research Branch, explains \u201cSocial media has the potential to\u2026 improve the efficacy of substance abuse interventions.
