Welcome to Mountainside Hospital’s social media center, where you’ll find the latest news
and information to keep you and your family healthy.
Our two blogs—Mountainside News and Notes and SlimmerU—are written by many of our physicians, administrators and other providers.
News and Notes will take you inside the hospital and tell you about new programs, updated technology, upcoming events and much more.
SlimmerU is for those interested in losing weight. An extension of our bariatric weight loss surgery department, it will offer information to those considering weight loss surgery and present our current patients the latest tips, ideas and motivational strategies to help them lose weight and keep it off.
Our blogs will also connect you to our web page, and you can follow us on Facebook and Twitter. We’re looking to engage you in conversation. And we ask you to do so in a polite and respectful way. Please be courteous, and avoid comments that are profane, obscene, offensive, sexually explicit, inappropriate, inflammatory or otherwise objectionable.
Remember that when you post a comment to a blog, it is published for the world to see. Please consider carefully how much personal medical information you want to share, with the understanding that this information may be linked to your name and published on the Internet. (To read our social media policy in full, click here.)
Social media is, after all, social, so please post your comments, questions and concerns and help everyone in our community get the most out of our blogs.
