Our Values

Our Values |
Values are key to any successful organisation. They are the core beliefs, philosophies and principles that underpin our organisation. They also support our vision and help define what’s important to us and our employees. In 2019, we put the call out to staff to help identify a set of shared values that would guide our behaviours and decision making across all levels of our workplace. This was driven by a desire to make Wide Bay Hospital and Health Service a great place to work while also providing quality patient-centred care. We wanted to make sure the values we adopted aligned with our strategic directions, but more importantly we wanted to make sure they had genuine meaning to our staff. Following extensive staff consultation, we shared the proposed values with our consumer and community group representatives and received very positive feedback. | |||||||||||||||

Or, C.A.R.E Through patients' eyes. Each value is supported by a series of core behaviours, which can be viewed by clicking on the tabs below. While our values set the tone for our preferred culture, the behaviours are the day-to-day demonstrations of those values in action. These are what we expect our entire workforce to aspire to and uphold, in pursuit of the best possible care for our community. These values and behaviours will drive our day-to-day decision making and how we communicate and interact with each other, our clients, patients and families. They will also guide our future planning. | |||||||||||||||
