At the heart of any organisation are its values; belief systems or “ways of doing things round here” that set standards in behaviours for all staff to follow. When values are successfully integrated the result is a shared strength, from which great patient care and staff experience can take place.

Our values were developed by our staff for our staff. They are:

Compassion
Recognising and responding to the needs of patients and colleagues.
Excellence
Making a difference with each small improvement and by being open to new ways of working
Collaboration
Achieving more together

 

We asked our staff what they thought about our values and this is what they told us:
