Values

VA embraces five "Core Values" for all of our employees. We need values in place as the "backbone" for our health care system. These five core values (T.R.E.C.C.) are:

-- Trust means having a high degree of confidence in the honesty, integrity, reliability and sincere good intent of those with whom we work with.

-- Respect means honoring and holding in high regard the dignity and worth of our patients and their families, our co-workers and the system of which we are a part.

-- Excellence means being exceptionally good and of the highest quality. It means being the most competent and the finest in everything we do. It also means continually improving what we do.

-- Commitment means dedication, and a promise to work hard to do all that we can do to provide service to our co-workers and our patients that is in accordance with the highest principles and ethics governing the conduct of the health care professions and public service.

-- Compassion means demonstrating empathy and caring in all that we say and do. It means sharing in the emotions and feelings of our co-workers, our patients, and their families and all others with whom we are involved.
