Our Values
We are commited to creating an environment for our customers that is friendly, compassionate and safe. It is a privilege that members of our community have trusted us with their health care needs. We must re-earn this trust every day. St. Anthony's Primary Care believes in a strong values system as the foundation for all its activities. We have embraced the St. Anthony's Health Care values of trust, dignity, respect, excellence and responsibility. It is critical that our clinical relationships are built on trust between the patient and the physician, and that the dignity of the patient is maintained throughout all encounters. As health care continues moving toward "commodity" status, we often see patient dignity sacrificed for efficiency, or simply overlooked entirely. Trust and dignity are born of mutual respect between the patient and the care provider. We also value true excellence in medical care. This is supported by the quality of physicians we accept in to our group and the dozens of programs designed to access and continually improve all areas of service and outcomes. Finally, we value our responsibility to our patients, staff and the entire community we serve. Each member of the St. Anthony's Primary Care team is expected to take responsibility to ensure that the level of care provided to our patients is the best that it can possibly be. If there is room for improvement, our focus is not on blame but on fixing the problem and improving our service.
