Right or wrong?
On this rare occasion, you overslept. To make matters worse, the kids have been less than cooperative. On this nightmare of a weekday morning, you’re running late. To save time, you drive by your assigned staff parking area and take a space in patient parking. At lunch, you validate your parking ticket with the office parking stamp so you won’t have to pay to move your car from patient parking to your assigned area. Right or wrong? Wrong. Unauthorized use of any parking area or parking validation by UPMC staff is a theft of services and is subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. Patient parking is a top priority at all UPMC facilities. However, staff members are encouraged to contact the parking office for their hospital or facility for information about affordable parking options. Return to list of stories in this issue
