*healthsector.net is the only independent online healthcare community servicing some 2.3 Million healthcare employees. The online TV channel was originally launched as an educational tool to help demonstrate and guide professionals on very specific topics, like wound management, using monitoring equipment and so on. However over the past years the viewing audience has exploded and the requests for different subjects has increased beyond what we had originally intended.

Sample Case Study:Smith & Nephew (5min)
The Case Study is included as editorial in the 30-minute documentary 'The
Orthopaedic Revolution'. This is not an advertisement as the content is
educational and informative about a new procedure being used in
Orthopaedics. The content is written, filmed and edited in a documentary
style which seamlessly slots into the main documentary but can also be
used on its own by Smith & Nephew (ie. Conferences, Meetings, Websites etc).
