Media Relations staff are available to assist you 24/7. During non-business hours, we can be reached via pager at 412-392-7963. After dialing that number, listen for three beeps, enter the desired call-back 10-digit number followed by “#.” You will be disconnected after hearing three more beeps.
To more closely protect the privacy of patients and their families, we are no longer routinely disclosing a patient’s status or condition to the media. For condition information on any victim of violent crime or an injured officer, please contact the investigating law enforcement agency.
