Many health professionals feel pressured and stressed by the systems they work within. The truth is they hold the power to change health. Today in a digital world, influence holds the key to making big changes to tired systems and ways of working. Influence can be created and managed by simply being known for your passions, expertise and willingness to share. The best way to grow your influence is to share your professional knowledge with like minded individuals. The best place to do so is in a trusted environment where people can come to find those who are validated and qualified to share their opinions. That's why we have built Bodyfanatix. We believe in the power of shared knowledge and that big changes to health can be made by individuals.

According to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) between 2016 and 2017, 20% more people left the register than joined it, and among those first registered in the UK, the figure was 45%. The data also showed a rise in the number of nurses and midwives below retirement age leaving the profession, citing low pay and poor working conditions as the reasons for leaving.

We have to relieve the pressure on our health systems and allow institutions such as the to do what they are great at. If people have more knowledge about their health and can access trusted articles and detailed profiles about validated healthcare professionals they can make choices to help prevent ill health and relieve an overburdened system trying to cope with administering a cure.

Great to hear this clear articulation of a fear that runs through the health sector yesterday. Like any industry that is facing a big change there is uncertainty about the tools at hand, but technology is already here and it's ready to improve health, we just need people to open there minds and be willing to change their psychologies towards its use. If nothing changes, nothing changes. The consumer already has high expectations set by other industry's, we just need the health sector to open up to the possibilities that are being presented.

Today we are Startup Grind listening to some inspirational minds in the arena. This quote stood out as it reflects our mission to evolve . At the moment health specialists operate in silos and there is little synergy with knowledge and information between specialist groups of health care professionals. We want to break down these silos so that healthcare professionals can learn from one another and be inspired by the developments in other specialisms. Our platform allows healthcare professionals to write in a peer to peer environment to increase collaboration or share peer to public, which helps give the world access to trusted, validated evolving health knowledge and improve

Great to be a part of the Health Foundry & Digital Health London event last night for the pitch. 5 interesting and innovative approaches to digitalhealth were presented, so we were delighted when we were voted as the winning pitch of the evening. The win gives us bit of extra motivation to keep driving our vision to get health professionals sharing their knowledge across silos to evolve health.

We continue to get great response to our mission and our platform but we need to find the and forward thinking healthcare professionals who want to evolve health and , those that don't just believe and support but want to get involved. The question is what's holding healthcare professionals back from embracing digital collaborative solutions? Why aren't they ready to offer patients more trusted health knowledge beyond the clinic room so that we can take personal accountability for our health and ultimately reduce the strain on the system? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below, it's great to hear different perspectives.

This is what Bodyfanatix is about. This is at the core of what we do. Right now healthcare professionals operate in isolated silos, sharing very little knowledge. We believe that if we help them to share their viewpoints and opinions as peers, make the connections and then allow the public to lift the lid on a trusted, validated health conversation, we will evolve health.

In the Information Age, too much information is becoming a problem. We are battling to know what we can trust, what's third party interpretation and what is just plain fake news. That's why we are supporting validated healthcare professionals to collaborate, connect and inspire a health evolution, all through sharing their frontline viewpoints and knowledge. We're changing the status quo.

This quote is often wrongly attributed to the navy seals. What does it mean? "Essentially, this quote suggests that the ability to succeed is not based on some type of Godly superpower someone is born with such that they can simply expect to succeed knowing it will happen due to their exceptional abilities. Success is based on the human ability to train to the point that when faced with a critical situation someone has practiced responses so many times that it has become an immediate reaction occurring without thought."

Those on the frontline of health have a voice, a unique viewpoint and knowledge that, if shared, can evolve health.

The world of medicine and surgery is exhausting both physically and emotionally. The calling to care for complete strangers is a special and all consuming career path. Today it is a career that is becoming increasingly frustrating as the pace of change accelerates and overwhelms whilst the world scrutinises the health systems in place. In an environment of change, which is both positive and negative, health professionals can find the act of writing brings them connection and community, which can help navigate and mitigate the stressful side effects of working in the sector. The voice shared from the frontline is often echoed by many others around the world.

Writing also helps to evolve thinking and bring inspiration. The knowledge or view point of one healthcare professional can fill the gaps in another's thinking, be they a peer or patient. Sharing knowledge can help reduce the growing dissatisfaction of those on the frontline of health by allowing their voice to have real impact in evolving health and inspiring innovation. Bodyfanatix makes it easy to write beautiful articles - whether long or short - in a peer reviewed professional environment. As a health professional you choose your audience - professionals members or the world

This is a game changer. Not only is it one of our New Years resolutions but a principle that sits at the core of every feature we build into the Bodyfanatix platform.

We're working to bring together the top thinkers, experts and practitioners in world wide health. You can read some of the viewpoints shared by our founder professional members via the link in our bio above.

Our world is filled with third party, media manipulated content making it hard to find truth and more importantly know what information to trust.

For health professionals sharing knowledge in our ever connected world often presents a minefield, as the stigma of criticism and error is huge; the industry does not want to talk about failure. But we are not asking health professionals to talk about failures, just experiences, viewpoints and opinions from the front line of health, so that the rest of us may lift the lid and read articles about our health that we can trust.

Connection and collaboration is our second resolution. No matter the position, rank or tenure of a health professional, all have a unique viewpoint and set of experiences. They have opinions that could inspire a peer in another specialist sector of health, ideas that could encourage new ways of working and a voice that could humanise health knowledge for the public to access.

We believe that in our connected world, if we can put professional egos aside and share knowledge, viewpoints and opinions, we can evolve health. The more readily trusted health knowledge is shared from the frontline of practice, the greater the influence it will have in effecting healthcare change and improvements.

Bodyfanatix is a place for trusted healthcare specialists to share knowledge, inspire collaboration and fuel innovation. We believe we can unlock unique professional viewpoints that will evolve healthcare for everyone. Find out more at http://bodyfanatix.com/
