Creating a New Facebook Page for Your Organization
A Facebook Page is a powerful tool for your organization to connect with patients, families, and caregiveners. Unlike a personal profile, a Page is a public-facing asset designed for businesses. You must have a personal Facebook account to create and manage your new Page.
Before You Begin
Have the following information ready before you start:
- Your Organization's Name: This will be the name of your Page.
- Page Category: Choose the category that best describes your organization (e.g., "Pediatrician" "Dentist," "Health System").
- Profile Photo and Cover Photo: Have your organization's logo and a high-quality cover image ready to upload.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Log in to Your Personal Facebook Account: Go to and log in with your personal username and password.
Go to the Page Creation Tool:
- Click the Create button in the top-right corner of the menu.
From the dropdown menu, select Page.
Enter Your Page Information:
- Page name: Enter the official name of your organization.
- Category: Start typing to find and select the category that best fits your organization. You can add more later.
Description: Write a brief, compelling description of your organization (255 characters maximum). This will appear under your Page name.
Create Your Page:
- After filling out the information, click the Create Page button.
You will be taken to a new screen to upload your profile and cover photos.
Add Your Visuals:

Congratulations! Your new Facebook Page has been created.
