We, the members of the
Lawrence Family Medicine Residency, endeavor in our daily activities to
uphold the highest standards of conduct and integrity. We dedicate our
professional lives to caring for our patients, teaching and continuously
learning while supporting each other and maintaining a healthy balance in
our personal lives. We embrace a diverse and collegial working
environment. Finally, our deep regard for humanity drives our individual
and collective efforts to improve the healthy and well being of the
community we serve.
We emphasize the following values:
Passion for Learning and Improvement
We believe that every day can be new and better if we allow ourselves
the joy of learning from what does not work and we see success as baseline
for tomorrow ís improvement.
Integrity
We will treat our patients, each other and those in our community with
respect and compassion. We will approach our daily lives with honesty and
fairness.
Diversity
We pledge to foster a working environment of cooperation that welcomes
diversity of background, experience and thought.
Balance
In the context of an intense professional experience, we are
committed to celebrating the other dimensions of our lives: our loves, our
families, our cultures, our faiths, our interests. We believe these very
things are what make us who we are and sustain us in the pursuit of our
mission.
Social Consciousness
From deep inside ourselves we are driven to serve the underserved.
This drive manifests itself in our commitment to alleviate suffering and
to empower patients to improve their lives.
