Respect
Respect is our commitment to treat all people well. It is based on our belief that each person
has equal dignity because each individual “is made in the image and
likeness of God.” We promote self-respect and mutual respect and
trust among all the members of the Bon Secours team.
Justice
Justice is the value that supports and protects the rights of all
people. It characterizes what we desire in our relationship to those
we serve and our co-workers. It promotes the right to have needs met
and in a manner consistent with human dignity; and it supports and
protects the right of the individual to participate in decision
making regarding their care.
Integrity
Integrity implies a highly-developed sense of ethical behavior, consistent
with that expected of an individual or organization with great moral
character. Integrity is having our actions in harmony with our thoughts,
feelings, and values. This integration of behavior with thoughts, feelings,
and values applies to each of us as individuals as well as collectively as
an organization.
Stewardship
Stewardship is the responsible use of
all our resources for which they are intended to support, promote, expand,
and preserve our mission and ministry. It is the use of good business
principles. It is the balanced and right relationship of quality and value
with cost and financial return.
Compassion
Compassion means experiencing empathy with another’s life situation.
Compassion is being with another as well as doing for them. This “being
with” is done in such a way that the person experiences acceptance,
concern, hopefulness, and sensitivity.
Quality
Quality is the excellence we strive to reach in the delivery of our health
services. It is done in a fashion to meet or exceed clearly established
internal and external standards. We will design or modify the ways we do
our work seeking to constantly improve what we do so that the right
things are done the right way.
Growth
Growth is developing and improving our services and promoting self-renewal
and progressive
development programs for those with whom we work, our organization and
our community. It implies expansion, embracing change and seeking new
opportunities as an organizational
way of life.
Innovation
Innovation is the process of creating or managing new ideas, methods, and
technologies to vitalize existing services and to develop new ones.
Innovation is stimulated by a strong awareness of the needs of those we
serve and thrives in an organization that promotes new approaches to
health care delivery. The innovative organization commits resources
necessary for research and development and for change, while recognizing
that not all new efforts will succeed.
