Values
Our Values
Our health care system carries forth Christ’s healing
ministry and strengthens the Catholic health care
mission. Our physicians and employees follow the values
established by our founding congregation, the Sisters of
St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration
Respect for life
The gift of life is so valued that each person is cared for with such joy, respect, dignity, fairness and compassion that he or she is consciously aware of being loved.
Compassionate concern
In openness and concern for the welfare of the patients, especially the aged,
the poor and the disabled, the staff works with select associations and
organizations to provide a continuum of care commensurate with the
individual’s needs.
Joyful service
The witness of Franciscan presence throughout the institution encompasses,
but is not limited to, joyful availability, compassionate, respectful care and
dynamic stewardship in the service of the Church.
Christian stewardship
Christian stewardship is evidenced by just and fair allocation of human,
spiritual, physical and financial resources in a manner respectful of the
individual, responsive to the needs of society, and consistent with Church
teachings.
Fidelity to our mission
Loyalty to and pride in the health care facility are exemplified by members of the health care family through their joy and respect in empathetically ministering to patients, visitors and co-workers.
