BVHS Corporate PR and Marketing earns Aster Awards
The Blanchard Valley Health System Corporate PR & Marketing Department has earned five awards in the 2014 Aster Awards competition. These awards include two gold, two silver and one bronze Aster Award for excellence in medical marketing.
The gold Aster Awards were given in the newspaper advertising category for the BVHS quarterly newspaper insert and in the brochure advertising category for the Blanchard Valley Health System overview brochure. The silver awards were given in the internal advertising campaign category for BVHS employee benefits communication and the newsletter/internal category for the BVHS Branches employee newsletter. The bronze award was given in the logo design/letterhead category for the Julie Cole Charity Golf Classic logo redesign.
“I am very proud of our team for earning these honors. Each of the winning entries was created in house without the help of advertising agencies, proving the expertise of our team. These awards are wonderful recognition for the work we do on a daily basis,” said Amy J. Leach, director of BVHS corporate PR & marketing.
The Corporate PR & Marketing team includes Amy Leach, Amy Jordan, Megan James, Abby Hartman, Mindy Radabaugh and Brian Rader. As winners in the Aster Awards competition, Blanchard Valley Health System will be honored in the national Marketing Healthcare Today magazine.
