Respect
We work for one another, for patients and for other health professionals. We practise in ways that defer to the inherent humanity of others, that give space and opportunity to the thoughts and minds of the people we work with, and that give regard to their position of strength or vulnerability.
-
Integrity
We care for one another, for patients and for other health professionals. We practise in ways that are honest, authentic and upright, and uphold the guiding principles and standards of emergency medicine.
-
Equity
We are fair to one another, to our patients and to other health professionals. We work in ways that are impartial and aware. We acknowledge disparities in health outcomes across Australia and New Zealand, and we strive for a system and service that is better.
-
Collaboration
We partner with one another, with patients and with other health professionals. We unite to achieve better outcomes, to learn and to advance as a body, as a specialty, and as a practice.
