Our values are

Caring, Integrity, Diversity, Excellence

CARING

A culture of caring, is a fundamental part of the nursing profession, characterizes our concern and consideration for the whole person, our commitment to the common good, and our outreach to those who are vulnerable. All organizational activities are managed in a participative and person-cantered way, demonstrating an ability to understand the needs of others and a commitment to act always in the best interests of all involved in the care of our patients.

INTEGRITY

A culture of integrity is evident when organizational principles of open communication, ethical decision-making, and humility are encouraged, expected, and demonstrated consistently. Not only is doing the right thing simply how we deliver our services, but our actions reveal our commitment to truth telling and to how we always see ourselves from the perspective of others in a larger community.

DIVERSITY

A culture of inclusive excellence encompasses many identities, influenced by the intersections of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, religious and political beliefs, or other ideologies. It also addresses behaviours across academic and health enterprises. Differences affect innovation so we must work to understand both ourselves and one another. And by acknowledging the legitimacy of us all, we move beyond tolerance to celebrating the richness that differences bring forth.

EXCELLENCE

As professional nurses a culture of excellence reflects a commitment to continuous growth, improvement, and understanding. It is a culture where transformation is embraced, and the status quo and mediocrity are not tolerated.
