Media Guidelines
Because the care of patients must always remain our primary responsibility, including maintaining a patient's right to privacy and confidentiality if that is what he or she desires, Providence Health & Services Alaska requires all representatives of the media to coordinate interview and photography requests ahead of time by contacting Communications & Marketing. After the request is received, a staff member will quickly determine whether an interview is possible and, if it is, will coordinate the arrangements, including meeting and accompanying the media representative during his or her visit.
Photography
No photos or video of patients may be taken without a Communications & Marketing staff member first securing written permission from the patient.
