Kaiser Permanente: Using Web-Based Learning and Social Media to Help Patients Lose Weight
Featuring: Dr. Jed Weissberg, Senior Vice President for Hospitals, Quality, and Care Delivery
Kaiser Permanente’s online learning modules and social networking site help members reach their goals for fitness and weight loss.
“There are ways for people to connect with one another through social networking sites sponsored by Kaiser Permanente, that allow them to go on their journey with others…You can find people who will walk with you, if not every day, in reality, at least virtually. And that kind of motivation really helps people get to their goals.”
