General information

This page is run by Akron General's Emergency Medicine Department to reach out to our patients, families, and supporters. We will attempt to engage as much as possible with everyone who follows us and participates on the site.

We welcome and encourage open discussion on our social media site and look forward to any comments, stories and experiences you want to share.

That said, we do make reasonable efforts to monitor participation to ensure that you stay on topic, are courteous and avoid making offensive comments. Please remember that information posted on our social media platform shouldn’t be considered medical advice and shouldn’t replace a consultation with a health care professional.

Please be aware that once you post something online, there’s the potential for thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of people to read your words, even years from now. As a result, we suggest that you exercise caution when posting medical information on any of our social media sites and that you not disclose personal identifiable information like your location, medical record number, financial information, etc.
