Golden Valley Memorial Healthcare has received statewide recognition for three marketing projects that GVMH produced this year to educate and inform community and area residents about their healthcare organization and its services. 

The Show-Me Excellence Awards, presented annually by the Missouri Association for Healthcare Public Relations and Marketing (MAHPRM), recognize high achievement and superb quality in advertising, marketing and public relations projects produced by hospitals and health care systems throughout the state.

The awards were presented at the Missouri Hospital Association’s 87th Annual Convention & Trade Show in November.  A statewide panel of public relations and marketing professionals judged the 317 entries in this year’s competition.

“We’re honored that the work of Golden Valley Memorial Healthcare has been selected to receive the statewide recognition,” said Randy S. Wertz, hospital chief executive officer.

The awards competition was established by MAHPRM in 1981 and is the only Missouri competition dedicated to hospital and health care public relations and communications efforts.  With 21 categories, the competition included projects in media relations, advertising, publications, writing, photography, marketing and public relations.
