Editorial Style

Boilerplate

Boilerplate text is descriptive content that can be used and reused for various communications. Marshall Health Network uses a standardized boilerplate that ensures consistency across outward-facing communications, conveying key messages and offering context for those unfamiliar with our academic health system. This approach streamlines processes and maintains a unified brand identity for the network. 

Marshall Health Network Boilerplate

As a standard practice, each news release includes a boilerplate offering a concise description of Marshall Health Network and its services. When an additional organization is also represented in the release, Marshall Health Network’s boilerplate should be prioritized and placed below the ###. There should be no italics applied to the boilerplate(s).
