Covering a Story
If you are covering a story that involves VVMC, please remember that this hospital is a private institution. We do have a media room available for situations that require its use. We will inform you of its location when you arrive at our campus. If you do not choose to stay there, please be advised that we require media to remain off campus, unless accompanied by a member of the VVMC Marketing and Customer Relations staff. This is for the protection of our patients, to preserve their confidentiality, and also for your protection. It also allows our staff to be inside getting the information you need.
If you are a member of the broadcast media and have a satellite truck with you, we ask you to please call the Marketing and Customer Relations department at 928 639-6096. Parking spaces are in high demand at the hospital, and we do not have room to accommodate large vehicles, especially when they take up patient parking spaces. Remember, patients are our number one priority.
Should you require a telephone, restroom, or other service, please check with a member of Marketing and Customer Relations or hospital Security staff so we may escort you. We reserve the right to ask members of the media to leave campus if they do not observe hospital policies.
