  • We are committed to providing a safe, culturally competent environment where our patient’s diversity is celebrated and everyone is welcome. 

  • We value our community and work every day to understand the needs of our patients through partnerships and innovative approaches to health care.

  • We strive to create an environment for our staff that encourages partnership. We understand that the work we do today ensures the health of our patients tomorrow.

Health and wellness

We believe in nurturing health and wellness among our patients, employees and the community. We focus on health promotion and prevention of disease.

Diversity

We believe in acknowledging and honoring people’s differences by drawing on the cultures, talents and ideas of a broader group of people. We seek to harness the strengths of our individuality for the common good. Our diversity allows the exploration of ways we are alike while also respecting our differences in a safe, positive and nurturing environment.

Quality

Progressive

We believe in innovation, growth and positive change in all we do.

Social justice

We strive to eliminate health disparities by providing high-quality care regardless of a person’s socio-economic status while advocating for health policy consistent with our mission.

Fun and thriving workplace

We commit to a workplace that emphasizes joy in our work, growing and developing employees, a passion for learning, creative problem solving, a celebration of individual’s uniqueness, and the spirit of teamwork in all we do.

Customer service

We value the service we provide to our patients, community partners, and each other. We maintain the integrity and self-esteem of each person we serve by listening to understand, responding to their needs in a timely manner, following through on our commitments, and seeking feedback for continuous improvement.
