New to the PLM app, our Community Groups house the discussions found on the PLM website. These Community groups enable you to keep up with different topics, events and discussions all in one place. You can join different groups related to your conditions, treatments, symptoms and other topics that you find interesting!
Once you select a group, we’ll show you an overview of the group, dedicated discussion space, other members in the groups, resources and any upcoming group events at the top of the page.
On the discussion tab, feel free to start a new discussion that relates to the group you are in, or tap into an existing discussion and share your experiences and point of view! Use the filter icon to adjust which discussions you would like to browse.
Tap on a discussion to read through and learn about others’ experiences. You can mark comments with a “helpful” reaction when you find informative posts from other members of the group.
As you create a discussion or add a comment to an existing discussion, you’ll notice you can add tags to your content. Tags are used to help categorize discussions and assist members in searching for relevant topics.
Within each group, you’ll see the members section in the slider bar below the group name. This is where you can view other members who have joined the group. We’ll highlight new members, and you can scroll down to search for someone specific.
The slider at the top of the page includes group events. This is where you will find webinars and other events that are available to the group through PLM. Click on an event to see the details.
The resources section houses helpful articles and other content from PLM for your group.
We hope that the new PLM app will help you connect with your community and more effectively manage your health journey. We look forward to seeing you in your community group! If you have questions or feedback don’t hesitate to reach out to us!
