Staying abreast of issues, trends, and research in healthcare is important to the success of the healthcare professional and the community at large. For this activity, you will:
• Locate a current article related to healthcare and specific to the healthcare sector that you are most interested in. Ensure that the article comes from a credible source of information.
• After reading the article in detail, write 1-2 paragraphs that will serve as a summary of the information contained in the article and your analysis of that information. This should demonstrate an understanding of the material, independent analysis, and critical thinking skills.
• Spend some time locating a group on LinkedIn that is specific to your area of interest or the sector of healthcare that you are wanting to work in. Join that group.
• Share the article, along with your 1-2 paragraph analysis, on LinkedIn to the group you joined. You should have a LinkedIn profile already set up but if not, you will need to do this (Theme 1).
• Finally, share a direct link to the LinkedIn group within your post that includes your article and the summary.
