About Releases:
Know your facility's procedure on privacy and photographs. Many places allow photos as long
as the patients/residents give permission. Others don't allow photos at all. Some individual
patients may have signed a document saying they want no pictures or publicity in any form. If
you are lucky, you might get a patient who will sign a release for you to use the photo
personally in an album or on the Internet, or in a video. Be sure to check your national group
(TDI, TDInc, Pet Partners) for their policies and procedures in addition to the facility's
procedure.
