The University of Tennessee Medical Center’s Marketing and Public Relations departments earned four awards from the Tennessee Society for Healthcare Marketing and Public Relations (TSHMPR). Announced in October, the annual Prism awards recognize outstanding achievement in healthcare public relations and marketing throughout the state of Tennessee.
“I’m extremely proud of the Public Relations and Marketing teams here at the medical center,” said Becky Thompson, vice president of Marketing and Planning at UT Medical Center. “This recognition is affirmation of the outstanding work they do each day. What’s perhaps most rewarding is that if you look at the projects recognized through the Prism awards, you’ll notice each one is a reflection on how our team works together to further UT Medical Center’s mission of serving through healing, education and discovery.”
UT Medical Center won two Prism Awards, the top honor available, one for its comprehensive Social Media program and one for a feature story entitled Cancer Patient Fought to Save the Lives of Others, about the late Ken Wilson of Powell, a man who gave countless hours of his time educating the community about prostate cancer while battling a terminal case of the disease.
TSHMPR also recognized UT Medical Center with Citations for the OUTLIVE: Tennessee Fights to Beat Cancer program as well as for the Facebook page of Chemo Bear, the teddy bear mascot of the Cancer Institute at UT Medical Center.
