Reading @CatherineTalb mentioning that twitter for chronic conditions and let’s be specific to dementia is under researched area. Question 1 is suddenly simple! Here goes #diversealz
Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz
Question 1 How beneficial are tweetchats covering dementia such as @carechat and dementia specific chats such as #Alzchat and #diversealz. adding #diversealz has become more organic over years
Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz
Gave hashtags for #alzchat though can engage via @IRememberBetter and see archived convos via @alzchat and then @DiverseAlz organically organised mind! #diversealz. There were other specific dementia chats but no more.

@DiverseAlz @CatherineTalb I was talked in joining several yrs ago by a brother. I'd been adamant that I wasn't interested in social media, no Faceblook etc for me, but like a duck to water, I found lots of great ducks to socialise, share stories, woes with etc. A great community. #DiverseAlz

There are twitter dementia communities! Some interact with each other. @journeyofcareM saying there are ducks on here. Well, with dementia one can sink or swim. Hopefully we are all swimming and becoming swans who can navigate so many issues. #Diversealz

Chats are invaluable tweets @Shedfieldlodge who mention something really key. Ideas. They can provide people/organisations with ideas. They are a resource for creatives and professionals interested in dementia #Diversealz

@CatherineTalb @DiverseAlz @CARECHAT I'm sure there are many ppl that are hesitant (as I was) to join in social media but would find enormous benefit if they did. Had I joined sooner I think it would've helped in the early difficult stages of mum's dementia. Do the Alz societies promote this ? #DiverseAlz

Indeed #diversealz has found its home moving from a chat that informed tweeting lots of resources, we used to give people topic to research and repodf on to still informing but becoming more personal at times via people’ s stories/shares/interactions . This is trust.

We also know that friendships offline have developed/develop, online too. Networking. Via #DiverseAlz @AdelinaCoHe visited a memory clinic in Canada and used as part of research. People can put out calls when/if starting in dementia related roles #diversealz

@DiverseAlz @helenfindlay (Joining late today!) I recommend Twitter chats to everyone I "meet" on Twitter who is experiencing dementia. #DiverseAlz

RT @helenfindlay:
Caroline @journeyofcareM
@DiverseAlz @helenfindlay I don't have a very large social circle. Actually my mum's care workers are the ppl I interact with the most. I share, verbally, all sorts of Twitter things I've come across with them. So indirectly, information, ideas, funny things, whatever, spreads further out. #DiverseAlz
Barbara Ivey @alzbarbie
@CatherineTalb @ThatVDOVault read one of my Tweets & suggested I participate. #DiverseAlz
nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE
@CatherineTalb @DiverseAlz Question: When @Twitter changed practices/policies regarding access to Twitter by third-party apps, was there any effect on availability or development of user-friendly interfaces that facilitate access to/participation in Twitter/chats by people w/ a dementia? #diversealz

Question 4 How important is trust? Aware Twitter open but think you know what is meant. Many participants have felt able to open up and even new people to timeline have sometimes felt able to share whole heartedly #Diversealz

Also introduced pick and mix tweeting out numbered questions, sometimes quickly as don’t want to forget. That said #diversealz first reliant on interview style but soon learnt to follow tweetchats (long gone) with numbered questions. Will think about speed #Diversealz
