Our Guiding Principles
We are committed to our patients and their families: We will provide compassionate, state-of-the-art medical care of the highest quality. It will be continuously improved upon by new discoveries of proven benefit and value. The needs of our patients and their families within culturally diverse communities will come first in everything we do.
We are committed to nurturing and supporting the professional well-being of all of our faculty, physicians, nurses, administrators, and other employees and members of our team: They will be treated with respect and dignity, both as individuals and as essential members of our organization. Compensation will be fair and adequate, the workplace will be safe and orderly, management competent and fair, and there will be opportunities for both professional and personal development.
We are committed to enhancing our patient care with research and scholarly activities: We will strive to make basic and clinical science discoveries that will improve the care of our patients and we will work to disseminate such knowledge to the medical community and to the public.
We are committed to educating and training current and future physicians and other health care professionals. We are committed to the education of our patients and their communities about the prevention and treatment of disease.
We are committed to the global, regional, and in particular, the local community that we serve : We will be good citizens, support good works and charities, help provide care for those less fortunate, and encourage civic, health, educational, and environmental improvements. In addition, we will serve as a resource to the colleagues of our medical community and use our expertise in domestic preparedness.
