Protecting your privacy: photography, videos and audio recording

Brockville General Hospital (BGH) is a public organization, and we are proud to care to our community. While in our hospital, we ask that you respect the privacy of those around you.

All photos, video, or audio at BGH must be taken with the consent of the people who will be included in the picture, video or sound. You cannot take photos or recordings without that consent. This extends to patients, visitors and healthcare workers.

A written consent may be required; please speak to a member of your care team.

Please do not take pictures in public spaces. To protect the privacy of our healthcare workers and the people whom we serve, you may be asked to delete any photo or video content taken without permission.

You may be asked to stop taking a photo, video or audio recording and delete any recordings taken if your actions interfere with care or services being provided.

Any photography shoots or audio/video productions for commercial, institutional, or educational purposes on BGH’s property or in our buildings require the coordination and approval of BGH’s Marketing and Communications department prior to any photography or recording taking place. Working with you, we are pleased to arrange appropriate consents with patients and providers under our policy.

BGH’s Marketing and Communications department will provide support for and accompany any media activity on our property or in our buildings, and arrange appropriate consents with patients and providers under our policy.

Prior to your visit, please contact Abby McIntyre, Marketing and Communications Specialist at amcintyre@brockvillegeneralhospital.ca to discuss your needs.
