At East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, care is at the CORE of who we are. We are comprised of care team members who live out our core values of Compassion, Ownership, Respect, and Excellence. We support each other by fostering a culture of team engagement that creates moments that matter – every interaction, every time.

• Compassion – We imagine what others are going through, work to alleviate suffering, and create joy whenever possible.
• Ownership – We take pride in our work, act with integrity, and feel personal responsibility for achieving our mission.
• Respect – We listen, understand, and communicate openly and politely. We recognize our diverse strengths.
• Excellence – We set high standards for performance in delivering the safest patient care. We give extraordinary and meaningful experiences to our patients, their families, team members, and the community we serve.
