It’s Official: Launching Sinai Health’s Purpose and Values

We heard from patient and family caregiver advisors as well as patients and families receiving care.

“As we went through the process, what became clear was the importance of honouring our history and punctuating that our Purpose and Values evolved from the legacy of our two founding hospitals,” says Susan Brown, EVP, People & Culture and Chief Human Resources Officer. “That’s why, we have created a Legacy Statement which serves as the foundation for this work and our Purpose and Values.”

After receiving feedback from Open Houses, the online survey and other engagement sessions, the final Purpose and Values is officially approved.

“Using all of the input received, we made some changes based on what our people told us,” says Susan. “We are thrilled to share the final Purpose and Values with you and begin to partner with you to integrate and embed this into everything we do at Sinai Health.”

Launching alongside the Purpose and Values is a set of Values-based Behaviours. These Behaviours were developed based on input from all, and describe how our values will be lived out.

“You’ll begin to see our Purpose and Values across our campuses on the walls of conference rooms and on new lanyards and badge cards, but also in orientation, performance appraisals and recruitment. But the real opportunity is when each of us embraces and lives out these values in all our interactions,” adds Susan.
