Compassion
Laying aside judgement, treating others with kindness and empathy, and consciously choosing to meet the needs of others.
Trust
Following through on our commitments, being accountable for our actions, acknowledging our mistakes, and learning from our experiences.
Collaboration
Working cooperatively to achieve excellence of common goals by valuing the contribution of others even in disagreement.
Respect
Establishing meaningful relationships, offering personalized resources, protecting autonomy and dignity for all, and creating a positive environment for staff and families.
The High River Maternity Clinic is committed to being an anti-racist and anti-oppressive environment. We denounce prejudice, discrimination, and violence on the basis of race, national or ethnic origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, religion, disability, or socioeconomic background.
In addition to our core values listed above, we are committed to gender inclusivity for our patients. We may use the terms, “mother” or “father” and “breastfeeding”; however, we recognize that not everyone identifies with these terms. If you have pronouns or family-based terms you identify with, please let us know and we will use these terms instead. We want every patient to feel welcome and comfortable.
On behalf of the High River Maternity program, and in the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that our clinic and hospital reside on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta which include the Blackfoot Confederacy, as well as the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Îyârhe Nakoda people. This land is also home to the Metis Nation of Alberta, Region 3.
