platforms, but especially Twitter and Instagram.

Only use hashtags that are likely to keep the tone you want in any

An Introduction to Key Performance Indicators

Choosing the Right Metrics (KPIs) for Your Social Media

KPIs measure how well social media posts, content, and campaigns are performing. And although there is a multitude of data points to track, the most important ones are:

- Whether people hear and are aware about the HSC

- How often people engage with HSC in social
- The rate at which engagement turns into conversions (See “KPIs for Conversions” below)
- The impact on the perception of the HSC (favorability, sentiment, brand)

It is important to get familiar with the KPIs for Reach, Engagement, and Conversions. You will want to understand how
your social media is performing in reaching your goals and whether or not adjustments need to be made.

Negative Comment Responses
Level 1 [Minor] Hide a Comment When:
- A follower posts profanity, and it is their first offense.
- Posts misleading information and/or links to an external article.
In general, followers leaving negative comments in a check-in, review, or on a
conversation thread are wanting to be heard:
Block a Follower Who:
Example public posting: “I was waiting for 4 hours in the ER! Unacceptable!” - Has posted more than one profane comment.
- Continually posts misleading information and/or links to external articles.
- Has posted a racial slur.
Example public response to posting: “[name] we are sorry to hear about your
experience at the [clinic]. We will reach out to you directly - [initial]” - Has verbally attacked another follower.

Direct message response to posting: “[name] we are always looking to improve the Turn off Comments When:

comments/blocking followers depending on severity. See above.)
Level 2 [Major]

Major negative comments are those directed at HSC staff around perceived Example: User has posted an image of someone making a specific hand gesture. The
discrimination, abuse and/or mistreatment: meaning of the symbol is in dispute; racist/not racist.

Level 3 [Severe)

Official responses to Level 3 scenarios are to come from the Chief Public Information
Officer. Examples of Level 3 scenarios include:

- Patient information data breach/hack

- Viral outbreak
- Natural disaster
- An active shooter or mass shooting
- Anything needing to be communicated out of an active Emergency Operation
Center (EOC)

DO NOT share information found online, or not approved by the HSC.

Doing so may lead to false or confusing information reaching the community and
spreading online.

HSC Social Media Steering Committee

Periodically, the HSC Social Media Steering Committee will evaluate social media
accounts to determine the account’s viability. From time to time, the evaluation
will result in a recommendation to close the account.

Accounts are evaluated with the following criteria:

- Review of the performance analytics over the last 90 days

- When was content last posted?
- Is there engagement (likes/favorites/page visits)?
- Are people still commenting and conducting back-and-forth conversations?
- Is the audience for whom the account was intended still visiting and engaging?
- Is community activity (likes/shares/comments) the same few people?
- Has there been genuine growth of the audience?
- How much of a Full Time Employee’s (FTE) time is dedicated to management?
- Does the amount of time spent managing the page outweigh the account activity?
