Our values and behaviours shape everything that we do as individuals and as an organisation, they are the foundation of every interaction we have with each other, our patients, their families and carers, our community, and our partners. We originally developed our four core values with our people and patients eight years ago, they formed the framework for how we deliver services and treat one another. We’ve now refreshed our values alongside the development of our five-year strategy.The ‘Living Our Values’ leaflet sets out our five core values and the behaviours that underpin them, they set a clear standard of what you can expect while you are cared for or work at Homerton Healthcare.
We will provide compassionate care which addresses individual needs and is responsive to our patients, service users, their families and carers, and our people.
We will do everything we can to make our services as safe as possible and constantly seek to learn and improve.
We will treat others as we would expect ourselves or our families to be treated and cared for.
We will take responsibility for our actions and any problems that we come across – we lead by example.
We will respect and value the diversity and differences of our patients and our people to ensure everyone is enabled to thrive, feels a sense of belonging and is able to be their authentic self.
