Hospital Ethics Statement
The hospital is committed to achieving the ideals reflected in the Mission, Values and Vision, in part, by developing and complying with the standards of the Code. Employees should consistently strive to exceed the minimum standard requirements for their conduct in the workplace. In that spirit, the Hospital has added the foundational “Ethics Statement” which follows.
“We strive to maintain an ethical climate within our organization which demonstrates that, in doing our work, we act in a manner which is consistent with Hospital values and it’s Code of Ethical Conduct.”
We maintain ethical processes which promote quality Healthcare, professional integrity, and high ethical standards in our business activities.
Leadership Responsibilities
Members of JDCH management have additional responsibilities associated with the Compliance Program. While all JDCH employees are expected to follow our Standards of Conduct, management is expected to set the example for responsible and ethical behavior.
Executives, directors, managers and supervisors have the responsibility to promote a culture that supports compassion, honesty, respect, responsibility, integrity, teamwork and stewardship among employees and physicians. This requires the promotion of open communication: zero tolerance of fraud, abuse and waste; encouragement of education and training sessions; and cooperation with requests for information on a timely basis.
