This fall, faculty and staff at UF Health Shands, UF Health Physicians and UF College of Medicine in Gainesville will adopt new UF Health-branded IDs, which will be worn over existing IDs and will serve as a public-facing introduction to patients and visitors.

The new badges will support UF Health’s focus on hospitality and creating a warm and welcoming environment for patients, visitors and employees. The large overlay badges will display our unified brand name — UF Health — and the wearer’s name and title in bold letters. This will allow us all  to present ourselves in a consistent and clear way.

This summer we’re offering photo booth opportunities for you to have a picture taken for your badge, and we ask you to visit us when we are on the UF Health main campus or our offsite locations. Photos are currently being taken for UF Health Shands employees.

There will also be opportunities for our UF-employed colleagues at UF Health to get their pictures taken, and they will receive communication in the coming weeks. For more details regarding photo booths or questions about the new badges, please visit the UF Health Shands HR site on the Bridge. New photo locations are added to the site daily.
