Johns Hopkins Medicine

"Dome"

Dome has been the internal employee publication for Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions for over 50 years and is the primary communications tool for staff. This past year, the magazine went for four to eight pages in order to accommodate the larger Johns Hopkins Medical community. This community includes a home care business, a managed care arm, a string of primary care sites, and a newly acquired community hospital.

Goals

  • Keep a diverse and geographically scattered workforce informed of new Hopkins initiatives and major issues facing the health care industry
  • Instill in employees a sense of pride in their workplace
  • Recognize the accomplishments of a cross-section of employees
  • Influence and motivate staff to contribute to the efforts of Johns Hopkins during a competitive time in the health care industry
  • Help recruit nurses and employees in the allied health professions

Results

  • Readership is high, with an increase in story ideas submissions
  • External readers have requested to be added to the mailing list
  • U.S. News & World Report used a Dome cover story as a launching for their own article
