For the media

All media interviews must be arranged through the hospital marketing department and all media are to be escorted by a staff person from the marketing department or their designated representative when in the hospital.

Updates on patient conditions are sometimes provided to the media if the patient or their designated representative has given authorization through a signed consent form. The hospital's first priority is delivering excellent medical care and respecting the patient's and their family's wishes with respect to privacy.

Unfortuntately, we generally cannot accommodate requests for hospital b-roll or for doing stand-ups within the hospital. We are happy to consider requests to participate in new stories related to health and medicine.
