Real World Examples:
- The Women’s Hospital NICU Testimonial: In this video we knew we wanted the Department Head of the Neonatal Instensive Care Unit to be on camera. He is so passionate about what he does and it shines through. This was a great way to build trust in potential NICU parents. Additionally, a family was brought in to talk about their experience with the NICU at The Women’s Hospital and how the staff had the whole family in mind when caring for their child.
- The Women’s Hospital OBED Testimonial: This video also combined a nurse manager perspective as well as a patient’s perspective of the Obstetrics Emergency Department at the Women’s Hospital in Newburgh, IN. We were hired to produce this video and wanted to highlight both sides of the story in order to build trust for the audience.
- The Women’s Hospital LDRP Testimonial: There are typically several departments (or service lines) within a hospital that is focused on the health of mothers and babies. One in particular is the Labor, Delivery, Recovery, and Postpartum service. This video was a great testimonial from a repeat patient that had a great experience delivering and caring for her newborn.
