CarePages - social networking and patients: "CarePages Connect Friends and Family. CarePages are free, easy-to-use Web pages that help family and friends communicate when a loved one is receiving care. It takes just a few minutes to create a CarePage, share it with friends and family, and build a community of support.
CarePages help Families:
Create a virtual meeting place on the web
Share news and photos as often as needed
Receive emotional support during a time of need"
This is a clever use of technology to receive and provide emotional support during illness. Lots more patients and caregivers are going to start using social networking - and this will also help to improve the clout patients carry in the future ! If you said good things about your doctor and your hospital on your website, this would have a hugely positive "word of mouth" marketing impact !
