Before the pandemic hit, TBHC’s employee and department newsletters (which Maryellen designed) were traditionally printed. Once the pandemic hit, we discussed with the hospital’s marketing department the benefits of going entirely digital. In addition to eliminating the printing cost, it freed up all layout and page constraints. Each newsletter is now designed as a scroll of varying lengths to accommodate content, which can include links (and QR codes). These newsletters are distributed through the hospital’s intranet.
Even in a global pandemic life – and marketing – goes on for this Brooklyn-based community hospital. Its department and employee newsletters went entirely digital (of course, a nice cost savings benefit and no need to hand distribute!). Our community newsletter, Keeping Brooklyn Healthy continues to be traditionally printed. In this issue: two pages were devoted to the latest everything devoted to COVID-19 sprinkled with photos of employees getting vaccinated; the hospital’s telemedicine program; surgical milestones; new partnerships, to name a few. However, for me, when I think of this issue what comes most to mind is the stunning cover photo that beautifully captures the overarching message of the road back…I found it on www.unsplash.com (a site that offers FREE images!! :))
Here’s a recent issue of Keeping Brooklyn Healthy, The Brooklyn Hospital Center’s community newsletter. It was an ideal time to tweak the look so it coincided with the newsletter’s expansion to eight pages and the decision to produce it quarterly vs. biannually. In this issue, articles included an update on the construction of TBHC’s physician pavilion, how TBHC provides excellent GI, obstetric and pediatric care, a photo essay highlighting the many community events TBHC has recently hosted, and much more.

This is a go-to combo! It’s ideal when the information being promoted has a short shelf life. Remember, with little effort it can also be resized for a poster. Shown here is a flyer/eblast for a BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) event taking place in TBHC’s lobby.
