Our core values

  • People who go above and beyond for patients and fellow team members. They are driven, and never give up, putting their best foot forward every day they come to work. Dreaming big-then making it happen, and always delivering more than what’s expected. They focus on what’s best for the team, and eliminate personal agendas.

  • Those who celebrate find joy in their work, and in their coworkers. They thank and praise others for a job well done. They contribute to a positive environment, and uplift others in times of frustration and challenge. They believe in the value of what they do, and celebrate all victories, both big and small.

  • A person who is accountable is reliable, honest, and keeps their promises. They use good judgment when making decisions. They take pride in their work—taking the win when they succeed and learning from mistakes when they happen. Accountable people are open and receptive to feedback, are slow to criticize others, and would never throw a teammate under the bus. They’re humbly confident, good listeners, and passionate about delivering excellent work and achieving goals.

  • People who are passionate about growth believe that big things are possible. They are not satisfied with the status quo. They are excited about education, and are always looking for ways to improve themselves personally and professionally. People who grow believe we are in a constant state of progress; they take chances and continue to set the bar higher. They are not resistant to change or new ideas because they find excitement in a challenge, and fulfillment in becoming stronger, wiser, and more efficient.

  • Each team member must connect to a greater sense of purpose in the work that they do. Enriching the lives of the people we interact with each day is at the foundation of our business, and those who are successful in our organization find ways to practice this model on a regular basis. Those who are committed to a spirit of enrichment are happy for the success of their coworkers, are good communicators, and treat others with kindness and respect. They listen well and have a caring, compassionate heart.
