Nursing Philosophy

"Nursing is… an honorable calling. I must not crave for the patient to be always recognizing my service. In the contrary—the best service I can give is that the patient shall recognize my presence MOST by recognizing that he has NO wants."
 
Florence Nightingale
May 16, 1888
 

Nursing is an art and science dedicated to promoting, maintaining and restoring the patient to an optimum level of health.  

We believe our patients deserve:
  • Warm, personal, compassionate care in an atmosphere of respect and dignity.
  • Patient-centered care based on the unique needs of each individual.
  • Care based on scientific principles designed to affect specific positive outcomes.
  • Knowledgeable clinical professionals providing and directing care in an atmosphere of mutual respect and teamwork.
  • A safe environment and an efficient use of resources.
