Rent a hospital by the hour in Atlanta, GA

When writing a script for a movie we often find our cast in the hospital for one reason or another. That means we have to find a hospital set that's open to filming. It's not so easy to just walk into a hospital and ask for permission, however. Some hospitals are film-friendly, but many filmmakers prefer working in a hospital set designed to look like one. Whether you're creating an indie film, a documentary, or a big budget television series, knowing where to find a hospital set in Atlanta is going to be important.

You can book a room or wing of an actual hospital rather than create a set in a production space. In fact, you can even book entire hospitals in some states and cities. The process is a little more time-consuming but it can be far more cost-effective, in the long run. You'll have access to actual hospital equipment and don't have to buy props that may not look as convincing.
First, you'll need to contact the hospital's Public Relations department or management. You'll need to provide a full accounting of your organization, film, plans, and budget. And be able to answer any follow-up questions the hospital asks. You may not have access to certain wings due to legal reasons and the faces of staff and patients likely won't be allowed to be recorded. Rental rates vary depending on the hospital, the time frame, and your negotiating skills.
You can also book rooms in dentist's offices and physical therapy rooms. These are a great balance between authenticity and price since you'll still have access to real equipment without the paperwork involved in a true hospital!

Instead of booking an actual hospital you can rent time at a hospital set. While the props won't be as authentic looking as MRI machines and hospital beds you'll have more flexibility when it comes to the rentals. There are fewer legal headaches and you won't have to arrange matters weeks or months in advance. A hospital set can be booked for the next day if there's availability.
For smaller indie films and documentaries a hospital set is the better option. Many production studios have standing sets available. Hospitals, prisons, salons, and other prop-heavy sets are readily available for rental by the hour or day. Studio Space Atlanta has 3 locations across town with 8 total standing sets, including an authentic-looking hospital room.
