• Comments by external parties on the Loyola University Health System
page or other social network sites are not considered official public testimony concerning any project or program. An opinion expressed on LUHS’ social media forums is posted for discussion only and is not a substitute for a formal statement in a public hearing process. LUHS’ social media networks are not forums to submit record or information requests, request doctor appointments or send confidential messages to LUHS doctors. It is not a channel for bullying or ranting. While it is not our intent to ban individuals from our page or other social media sites, we will remove abusive and/or inflammatory content. We hope you'll never have cause to complain about Loyola University Health System or its services, but we are open to any and all feedback and will do our best to help you connect with the right people who can, if needed, correct any situations that require attention. Because of the need to protect the privacy of our patients, we may sometimes ask you to send us appropriate details in a private channel via Facebook message feature or email. You have the right to decline this request. Please be aware that we cannot discuss personal, legal and private matters in a public channel. As a result, posts that mention litigation will be promptly removed. Please note that we do not allow the practice of "bumping" content - that is to say, posts that serve to repeat existing issues and bring them to the top of the Facebook wall or other social media network forums. All posters participate at their own risk, taking personal responsibility for their comments, username and any information provided.
