Mercy Children’s

Overview

When Mercy, the sixth-largest Catholic healthcare system in the U.S., rebranded its 31 hospitals under a new logo, they found that their Children’s Hospitals no longer distinguished themselves within the Mercy system, nor in the hyper-competitive healthcare marketplace. TOKY was asked to create a strong yet playful new brand to unite Mercy Children’s Hospitals.

NURTURING THE NEXT GENERATION

Rather than a single image or message, TOKY created a unique new brand language system for Mercy Children’s, with both a new icon system and new messaging. That system is based on four core values, or promises, each with its own icon: Spirit, Learning, Connection, and Care. In developing the new brand language, TOKY crafted a warm, friendly new tagline that conveys Mercy’s approach to care: “We connect to kids.”

PRINT TO PRIME TIME

A fluid, continuous line plays a distinctive part in each new marketing piece, from print ads for Mercy’s “Day of the Child” to receiving blankets and TV spots shown during primetime coverage of the Summer Olympics.
