CHPRMS Recognizes Excellence in Health Care Marketing and Communications

Columbia, SC – The Carolinas Healthcare Public Relations & Marketing Society recognized more than 50 organizations across North and South Carolina with its annual Wallie and Golden Tusk Awards on Thursday, October 19, in Asheville, NC.

CHPRMS, the region’s premier health care marketing and public relations society, created the annual Wallie and Golden Tusk Awards in 1978 to recognize excellence in health care public relations and marketing from purpose, concept and design to production, execution and results.

Participants compete in more than two dozen categories, which include print, web design, video, publications and campaigns, among others, and a panel of marketing communications professionals from around the country chooses the winners. Find the complete list of 2023 award winners here:

“With so many quality entries, our expert judges had a challenging task selecting this year’s award winners,” said Michele Affronte-McCausland, CHPRMS president. “The Wallie and Golden Tusk award winners exemplify the best in health care marketing and communications through their innovative strategies, creativity, results and overall excellence.”

Now in its 45th year, the annual CHPRMS Wallie and Golden Tusk Awards competition is exclusive to the Southeast for hospitals, health systems, medical practices, specialty clinics, senior care organizations, other health care facilities, such as rehabilitation and behavioral health, insurers, consumer health societies, pharmaceutical or medical equipment manufacturers, nonprofit organizations, advertising agencies and creative firms.
