First navigate to the app store.
Install Twitter
Search for “twitter”.

one please set one up.
Install Twitter
Click “Open” when the download is finished.
Sign up
Welcome to Twitter! First you want to create an
account, so click “Sign up”.
Sign up
Your “Username” AKA your “Twitter handle” will be how people find you. The
one suggested is often difficult to remember, so select something more recognizable, such as a first name followed by “NHS”.
Sign up
Next you want to choose a name:
• @Handle / Username (unique – cant be changed)
• Shown Name (not unique – can be changed)
i.e: @Orlando_Hampton
NHS Orlando

just a matter of trying different names until it works!
Sign up
Much better! Now you may click “Sign up”.
Sign up
You may be presented with the following screen. When getting
location requests etc, you might not want to click “Don’t allow”. They drain battery and be pretty irritating.

Let’s all have a go at sending a tweet.
@orlando_hampton is wearing a terrible tie #heemtwitterclinic
I just learnt about the basics of twitter from #heemtwitterclinic #EMLASoMe @nhsEMLA
You are published!
It’s as simple as that to send out a message. You’ll see the tweet
pop up on your home feed.
Remember: Using the #
“Easily #thebest #training I
have ever done #heemtwitterclinic #EMLASoMe @nhsEMLA”
Will increase the reach of your tweet to everyone looking for #thebest and #training. So #nhs and #health and #education may be good common factors
Deleting tweets
If you made a mistake, missed a #, or changed
your mind Tweets can be deleted
This also deletes retweets
Warning: People may have “screen grabbed” your tweet
Other Twitter Tabs
First click on the “@ Connect” tab (or “Notifications” on the newer version/Android). This is where you’ll see all tweets that have your Twitter handle in them.
Twitter Tabs
Next is the “# Discover” tab (“Timeline” and then swipe to the left to right on
the new version). This will show topics that your followers are talking about…
Twitter Tabs
The “Search” box can be used to look for hashtags too! Search for
#heemtwitterclinic and you will be shown all messages containing that #!
Twitter Tabs
Finally there’s the “Me” tab. This shows all of the tweets/
re-tweets that you’ve sent out, your new followers, and more!
Good Twitter use
How will Twitter help me at work? Tell your stakeholders:
• About your work to build rapport/engagement
• About upcoming events
• About campaigns
• Improve your reputation and reputation of your work
• Provide another avenue for feedback and questions
HEEM Example
Orlando’s Story:
Account just for work
Promoting events and campaigns
Research and news
Talking to key stakeholders
Responding to Questions
HEEM example
Gerard’s Story:
Describing working day
Describing challenges
HEEM example
Describing opportunities
Describing successes
Building stakeholder rapport, responding to questions
NHS example
Share opportunities
Describing successes
Building stakeholder rapport, responding to questions
What shouldn’t I say?
Complaints vs Trolls
• Respond to complaints carefully and with advice
• Don’t feed the troll
Phishing
• Fake accounts
• Hacked accounts
• Unusual requests
• Suspect links
Update your profile
Example: HEEM account
The main HEEM account is controlled by the Comms team, with some access to other experienced users for events and campaigns.
So, if we are talking about work we include “@EastMidsLETB” and it will be shared to the 1300+ followers that HEEM has.

Why can twitter help with events and
campaigns?
• Another form of communication to email / newsletter / word of mouth
• Immediacy of message / Sharing resources instantly / response

Strategy
You may want to think about / draw up a strategy. Heres an example: POSTE
• People – who is your audience?
• Objectives – what is your message ? What does success look like?
• Strategy – how are you going to get your message to your audience?
• Technology – what are you going to use?
• Evaluation – how are you going to measure the outcomes?
Example Campaign Strategy
Heres an example of a campaign: #loveourlearners
• People – All 10,000 HEEM learners
• Objectives – To build rapport between HEEM and learners
• Strategy – Inductions, events, awards and twitter with ambassadors
• Technology – Twitter, Hootsuite, storify, HEEM newsletter, (youtube)
• Evaluation – Events attended, Number of learners met, number of tweets and their reach, qualitative responses, ambassador reflections
#loveourlearners
Example Event Strategy
Heres an event example: 2014 Allied Healthcare Professional Summit #HEEMahp
• People – AHP, AHP leads and AHP educators from the East Midlands
• Objectives – What change is necessary to future proof AHP’s and how do we bring that change about
• Strategy – A summit with keynotes and workshops and messages from it
• Technology – Hootsuite, twitter, storify (more on these to come)

An alternative to clickers, delegates use the poll link to enter their responses via Twitter while you show the live totals on screen.

FAQs
Q. Why Twitter and not Facebook etc.?
A. Twitter is the most widely used social network in terms of presence in the healthcare environment. Also, we do not currently have the resources to run more than one account full time. Also, Twitter is fairly easy to use and maintain due to the 140 character limit on tweets. However, we may look at expanding our presence once the HEEM Twitter presence has matured successfully.
Q. Can I rename my account?
A. Yes you can! You can edit many features about your profile by navigating to the settings page.
Q. I already have a Twitter account, should I create a new one just for use at work?
A. It depends. If you want to use Twitter for personal opinions and points of view not associated with work i.e. football, films etc., then it would be better to make a personal and work account. If you just want a Twitter account for professional networking and work related activities, then just the one account will do.
Some employees are worried that professionals/colleagues may follow their personal account when they'd prefer only friends to see their tweets. In this instance, you can make your personal account private, meaning that any followers must be approved before they can view your tweets.
FAQs
Q. How do I get followers/follow?
A. When getting started you should ask your colleagues whether they're on Twitter and follow them directly or via one of their tweets. From here, you should follow those who post interesting content to your Twitter feed. Follower counts tend to grow slowly at first, however as time goes on, more and more people will be exposed to your tweets and the follow count will grow organically.
Q. What should I tweet about?
A. In a work context, colleagues tweet about projects they're working on, events they've been to, changes associated with the NHS and HEEM etc. However, don't feel you have to be too clinical, the idea is to begin conversations.
In terms of what you shouldn't tweet about, just think "Would I say this to a stranger?" If the answer is yes, then go ahead, if it's a no, then think twice about posting it for all to see!
FAQs
Q. How often should I Tweet
A. There is not rule on how often you should tweet in terms of a personal account, it's as much as you feel is necessary. 5-15 a day is generally best, but don’t force it!
Q. What if I tweet something then change my mind? Can I edit/delete a tweet?
A. You can't edit a tweet once it's been sent, however you can easily delete a tweet.
Q. What does HEEM expect from me in my tweets?
A. Using Twitter is supposed to benefit both HEEM and employees. For HEEM, it gives more exposure to topics and issues that might want to be communicated with trainees, trainers, employees etc, and for you, it allows for networking with others that fall under the HEE umbrella and further.
Homework
• Review the slides. What 3 things will you try? • Read up on the links and references • Plan your twitter activity as you plan your event • Look up other examples of guides • Register / play with hootsuite / twijector /
storify / tweetbeam / tweetreach /twitter • Don’t forget help is at hand from the whole
internet !
