As a member of the MGH community and in service of our mission, I believe that:• The first priority at MGH is the well‐being of our patients, and all our work, 

including research, teaching and improving the health of the community, should contribute to that goal.

• Our primary focus is to give the highest quality of care to each patient delivered in a culturally sensitive, compassionate and respectful manner.

• My colleagues and I are MGH’s greatest assets.• Teamwork and clear communication are essential to providing exceptional care.As a member of the MGH community and in service of our mission, I will:• Listen and respond to patients, patients’ families, my colleagues and community 

members. • Ensure that the MGH is safe, accessible, clean and welcoming to everyone.• Share my successes and errors with my colleagues so we can all learn from one 

another.• Waste no one’s time.• Make wise use of the hospital’s human, financial and environmental resources.• Be accountable for my actions.• Uphold professional and ethical standards.
