Title: Department "public service" posters
Project ID: 387447
Category: Graphic Design / Presentations / Multimedia

Description: Description of Organization: Large -- 150 people total -- anesthesiology department comprised of residents (physicians still in training), their physician supervisors (attending), tech's, etc. When residents bring patients to the intensive care unit (ICU) or recovery area, they often leave the patient with equipment such as pumps, cables, etc. running down the supplies in the operating rooms (OR's.) I want to give each resident a poster or flier encouraging them to bring back to the OR the same equipment that left with the patient.

Target Audience: residents
Width:8.5"
Height:11"
I will provide the following to the professional: Concept, Text/Copy
The professional must provide the following: Colors, Graphics, Layout, Logo
Type of Graphics Needed: Clip Art, Original Illustrations/Graphics, Stock Photography
Printing Needs: No, I do not need printing.
Desired File Format: word docs
Project Start Date: 3/12/2008
Project Completion Date: 3/19/2008
Payment(s) for this project will be processed via: SafePay Escrow

Additional Specifications for the Project: I would like one or two small posters,
perhaps referring to a 1950's or 60's public service announcement style. Nothing too serious. I will upload some concepts. Equipment that is being left in our ICU's and recovery areas or post-anesthesia care unit's (PACU's) include IV poles, transport monitors (with heart rate, EKG and blood pressure information displayed on them), EKG cables, medicine infusion pumps, arrest bags, etc.) I can provide photos of these but can't upload them now for some reason.

Comments:
The job requirement is a bit complicated and not interesting. It is about giving a reminder and encouraging towards the hospital staffs to bring back the hospital equipment that left with the patients. Design wise, a poster or flyers, colour scheme and layout referring to 50’s or 60’s public announcement. I think pastel colours like light brown with a black and white clip art would be the best solution in terms of design, while the layout may have lots of information about the hospital equipment. I reckon to have a poster rather than flyers. This can be done in a week!
