PURPOSE

The purpose of this policy is to inform departments within the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) of the photographic services available through the Office of Educational Services.

PROCEDURE

  1. Photographic Services is located in Education II, B-142 with studios in Education II, G-102. Operating hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
  2. Photographic Services are provided to official UAMS users as a first priority on a fee-for-service basis. Services not chargeable to a UAMS account are provided on a second priority basis to users professionally associated with UAMS or from the health care community at large with needs for the specialized services offered.
  3. After-hours photographic needs may be scheduled with advance notice. Off-campus travel after hours will normally incur additional charges as appropriate.
  4. Emergency needs for photography outside normal operating hours are provided for with equipment support. On a daily basis, Photographic Services places a "camera kit" at the ER nursing station. The kit contains camera and flash equipment ready for use, simplified instructions for use, and necessary forms for documentation. At the open of business on the next working day, the kits are collected, exposed film is processed and delivered normally to the client. Equipment is given an operational check and reloaded with fresh film daily.
  5. Services include preparation of 35mm teaching slides; preparation of prints for publication; portraits, application and passport photos; UAMS employee ID cards; photography of studio setups (instrument arrays, etc.); surgical/clinical photography; technical/scientific photography; photomicrography; public relations and general illustrative photography; student and faculty yearbook photo/class composites; slide duplication; film processing and miscellaneous photolab services; luggage tags; transparencies, and photo copies.
