Our Vision

Healthy People, Healthy Communities

Eastern Health’s vision is Healthy People, Healthy Communities. This vision is based on the understanding that both the individual and the community have important roles to play in maintaining good health.

We work with the communities we serve, and partner with others who share a commitment to improving health and well-being, to help us achieve this vision.

Our Values

Eastern Health's core values guide the behaviour of all individuals in the organization as they provide services and interact with others. As the organization grows and evolves, so too should the principles that it stands for. Eastern Health’s core values have been updated to better reflect the views shared by its employees, physicians and the public.

	Accountability Be responsible. Take ownership. Serve with integrity. Be able to explain our actions.
	Caring Show kindness. Be compassionate. Be understanding. Commit to people-centred care.
	Collaboration Be a team player. Connect across programs. Engage with communities. Value everyone’s contribution.
	Excellence Go above and beyond. Support and promote innovation. Strive for greatness.
	Respect Be considerate. Recognize and celebrate diversity. Treat everyone equitably.

Diversity and Inclusion

Eastern Health stands for diversity and inclusion. We are committed to building a place for all.

Eastern Health respects and believes in the knowledge, experience and perspective of every individual to move us forward. Guided by our core values of respect, integrity, fairness, connectedness and excellence, we draw our strength from embracing the distinct and complementary characteristics of our large workforce and our founding communities. Together, employees, physicians, students and volunteers work to provide health equity and quality in the achievement of Eastern Health’s vision of Healthy People, Healthy Communities.

We acknowledge that each person has a responsibility in the betterment of our communities. We believe that the health-care system should be a welcoming and safe place for all individuals and groups regardless of race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, class, creed, sex, gender, size, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, education, marital status, source of income, same-sex partnership status, family status or disability.
