Homewood Human SolutionsTM is an industry leader and pioneer in mental health and addictions, organizational health, and Employee and Family Assistance Programs. It is pioneering the use of social media to provide Canadians with expert and meaningful health and wellness information, including a blogging website (http:// www.healthyworkplaces.info) that is packed with posts by medical and organizational health experts. Research finds that 68% of Canadian adults use a general search engine such as Google to research health and wellness topics and 34% of people searching for health- related information use social media. This figure is much higher with the 18 to 24 year old demographic. The social networking project will offer the latest breaking health news, pertinent opinions, information on national conferences, articles from around the world, and research materials. Homewood Human Solutions’ online community is located on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, and http://www.healthyworkplaces.info.
