Values
Women and Family Centered Approaches
Health is not simply about biological differences or reproductive health. Social differences have a profound effect on women’s health. Women and family-centered care incorporates issues that extend beyond traditional medical interventions, placing health in its broader context of social determinants. Our services need to be designed to meet patient’s needs, striving to minimize fragmentation and complexity in using our services.
Accessibility, Diversity & Inclusiveness We believe that all B.C. women and their families deserve high quality health services, appropriate to their needs and circumstances. Our patients and clients should benefit from health care and services that are respectful, and address health needs in the social and cultural contexts of their experience.
Comprehensive & Holistic ApproachesWe aim to provide a comprehensive service to our patients and clients, and are committed to an inter-disciplinary approach to clinical care, teaching and research.
Evidence-Based Quality BC Women’s aims to achieve excellence through research, evaluation, education, and innovation.
AccountabilityWe need to be accountable to our clients, funders, and communities in B.C. Demonstrating efficiency and effectiveness is the responsibility of all of us. We are committed to managing resources to optimize our capacity to fulfill our mandate.
Mutual RespectWe value the contributions of all our staff and our partners across B.C. as we work to implement our vision.
