Local health-care professionals: Come join in the journalism
Back in January, I invited local doctors and other interested health-care professionals to help the News & Record improve its coverage of medical and health-care issues, via e-mail to me and participation on this blog. Through the good graces of Dr. John Lusk and Wilma Bailess of the Greater Greensboro Society of Medicine, that invitation is being extended more formally today through the society's newsletter.
That participation could take the form of commenting on stories we've published, but I'll also try to post here about stories that I'm working on so that you can offer suggestions on angles to look at, sources to talk to, records to peruse and questions to raise. I am trying to create a dialogue between me and you local health-care professionals to improve our journalism, but I also hope that the dialogue will sometimes take the form of a discussion among commenters, with this blog serving as an online gathering place for you.
The GGSM newsletter goes primarily to doctors, but I'm interested in hearing as well from nurses, office managers, psychologists and anyone else working in the field of health care. You can leave a comment here or e-mail me. I look forward to hearing from you.
