Looks like Mercy Health System has committed to going social. They’ve recently launched MercyPulse.org. The “Pulse” is a new website highlighting Mercy’s presence on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Blogs, and RSS. Also on the site is an opportunity to sign up for Mercy’s eBlast, for a chance to win some great prizes!

The site is really flashy and easy to navigate. Mercy appears to be setting the standard for other healthcare organizations looking to dive into social media.
