  • Healthcare providers can now show more about themselves in a video CV. With Vine they may only be able to get out their name and specialty. With Instagram Video they can include more info on their background and experience for patients and other viewers.
  • A hospital can use Instagram video to provide a short virtual tour of an examination or operating room. Showing the facility and instruments ahead of time can be comforting and informative for potential patients.
  • An Instagram video is also a great way to show how the hospital is helping the local community. For example – filming a blood drive, a wellness run or a fun charity event.

What makes Instagram video so great is that videos can be created and uploaded in near to real time. With the touch of a few buttons, your video can instantly be seen all over the world, creating immediate buzz for your hospital or healthcare facility. No fancy video equipment or software is required – simply a smartphone and a connection to the web will do the trick.
