Who We Are:
The Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group, (MAPMG) is one of the nation's premier multispecialty medical groups and is the largest integrated medical group in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia. Founded in 1980, the medical group has more than 1,700 Permanente physicians spanning more than 50 subspecialties. Together, we serve approximately 800,000 Kaiser Permanente members in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia at 34 area medical centers, plus several community hospitals and skilled nursing facilities.
Overview:
The Strategy & Communication Summer Internships at the Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group (MAPMG) (headquartered in Rockville, MD) are designed to provide training and experience to undergraduate and graduate students with an interest in health care systems, public relations, writing and digital communications, including social media.
Responsibilities:
Communications interns will work directly with experienced communications professionals, physician subject matter experts and spokespeople to develop content for social media, internal newsletters, external websites and other public relations activities. Past projects included interviewing physicians and writing blogs and articles for internal and external audiences, developing graphic design templates, planning and supporting live events, creating short videos and creating and implementing social media campaigns. Design and photography skills are a plus. Science writing skills are a plus.
Ideal interns are self-starters, energized by a fast-paced work environment, exercise exceptional judgment, enjoy working on teams, have excellent attention to detail and are interested in improving health care delivery. Students working towards bachelor’s or master’s degree in public relations, journalism, communications, marketing or similar programs are encouraged to apply.
Interns receive a competitive stipend for participation in the program. Interns are expected to work the full duration of the program which is June 5th- August 18th. The internship is primarily remote with orientation at the Rockville, MD regional office, and the potential for offsite work at medical centers in Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
Equity, Inclusion, and Diversity:
MAPMG continuously works to identify and mitigate healthcare inequities, and that starts with providing an inclusive, supportive environment for our employees. We encourage applicants of any race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin who value diversity and will commit to practicing culturally competent healthcare.
