Social Media Policy

CentraState Healthcare System welcomes active communication including discussions, commentary, and questions, but we ask that you keep your comments and posts relevant and respectful.  We would like to keep the conversation positive and engaging. To ensure that this happens, please be respectful of others and of CentraState when you post and/or comment.  Also, please keep the conversation on topic, and avoid posting spam, such as advertisements, chain letters, etc. We reserve the right to remove posts advertising commercial products, as well as those that violate facebook’s terms of service, or are inaccurate or otherwise objectionable

We do our best to monitor our feeds regularly, but we do not moderate all comments and cannot always respond in a timely manner to online request for information. We will remove any inappropriate comments or post. CentraState reserves the right to add, remove or edit content on this and all social media pages at its sole discretion and without warning.

Any information, comments or links posted by CentraState should not be considered medical advice. This information is not a substitute for professional medical advice. It may not represent your true individual medical situation. Do not use this information to diagnose or treat a health problem without consulting with a qualified healthcare provider. Consult with your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns.

Information that you post may never go away, even after you delete it. Therefore, we suggest that you refrain from posting medical and personal information about yourself or others, including family and friends. If you choose to post your medical information, it will be accessible to all others on the site, and we encourage you to limit your posts and comments to your own personal experience and situations. We recommend that you do not post any medical information about others. However if you are posting medical information about others, you must have their approval prior to posting any private or sensitive information.

CentraState shall not be held responsible for inappropriate content, images or third party links submitted by other parties and/or users. Any image, photograph or video posted to any page is consenting to all the governing rules of that page and/or platform. Posting of an image, photograph or video may constitute a copyright violation, so your posting of any image, photograph, or video constitutes your representation that you have received permission from the original source to do so. This policy/disclaimer is in addition to any and all policies of this social media platform.

In addition, postings that appear on our social media sites do not necessarily reflect the views of CentraState Healthcare System, its employees, or any of its affiliates. When we post links to external websites, those sites do not necessarily reflect the views of CentraState. Also, if we choose to follow someone or to recognize our favorite pages, comments or videos, we are not endorsing that user or content.

Anyone who posts on our social media site agrees to indemnify us against any legal claims related to posted material, such as damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, costs, or expenses.

Thanks for reviewing this policy, and we look forward to hearing from you.
