Healthy Debates on health.mil

If a woman is sexually assaulted, the emergency contraception takes care of one issue, but what about the risk of STD's or psychological issues stemming from the assault. Without the intervention of a health care professional, many women will have partial care rather than the holistic care we have been advocating.

The MHS Engagement Protocol is the foundation for all online interactions Outreach

Messagin Consultation g

Protocol Guidelines Outreach • Outreach will be conducted strategically when opportunities to advance the MHS mission are identified through the monitoring of discussion on blogs, message boards and social networking communities • Outreach communications should include a call to action • Staff conducting outreach will disclose their affiliation with MHS, making the source and intent of the messages transparent Social media outreach defined: Engaging with external stakeholders via email communication or posting of messages on public-facing communities (e.g., blogs, message boards, social networks)

Protocol Guidelines Messaging • Language will be crafted around pre-approved messages aligned to an overarching communications plan • Messages should always be respectful, on-topic and advance the MHS mission • Messages should be supported by MHS assets, such as videos, podcasts, news releases, reports and/or other collateral

Protocol Guidelines Consultation • MHS communications leadership must be consulted when sensitive issues arise that cannot be addressed by pre-approved messages • MHS public affairs staff will be consulted when online discussion may attract mainstream media interest • Input from Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) will be solicited when topics require technical expertise beyond a general level of understanding • Online discussion pertaining to other MHS components such as Force Health Protection & Readiness or TRICARE will be shared with appropriate personnel
