The 不良研究所 Nursing Program embraces these Core Values:

I. CARING is essential to the practice of person-centered nursing, and we treat all we serve with sensitivity, respect, and empathy. We affirm the provision of holistic care through therapeutic relationships directed toward health, comfort, and well-being.II. COMMUNICATION AND COLLABORATION require accountability, honesty, integrity, and respect for all participants in care. We practice shared decision-making with each other and with all we care for and with.III. SAFETY is of utmost importance to the practice of nursing and comprises various components. We strive to prevent physical and emotional harm to patients, clients, their families, and our colleagues while delivering high-quality care. We also practice cultural humility and strive to promote cultural safety through the recognition that social, historical, political, and economic circumstances create power differences, which shape health and health care encounters. We promote theoretical and clinical preparation where taking personal responsibility, reporting adverse events, and promoting system-wide approaches to error prevention are part of our culture. We are committed to holistic, collaborative, and equitable approaches so all individuals feel safe.IV. CRITICAL THINKING is a multidisciplinary and interprofessional approach that is essential to nursing and is a self-reflective and purposeful approach to learning and clinical practice. We value the ability to make connections between patient (individual, group, community) data and evidence-based knowledge, leading to appropriate clinical interventions for patients.V. EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE asks that we design, implement, and evaluate care for individuals, groups, families, and communities in a way that is attuned to the dynamic landscape of emerging knowledge, evidence, and recommendations from nursing science and various related disciplines. The integration of current research, clinical evidence, and patient/family preferences guides nursing practice and clinical decision making.VI. PROFESSIONAL ATTITUDES AND BEHAVIORS are vital to the practice of nursing through which we earn and build trust. We believe that professional attitudes include the understanding that patients and clients are experts and our partners in care. Professional behaviors expected of nursing students and nurses are aligned with the  and include thoughtful and responsive communication as well as accountability and ethical conduct. As professionals, we model accountability and ethical conduct. We practice humility and lifelong learning for the advancement of nursing.VII. SOCIAL JUSTICE (theory, practice, and outcomes) embodies health equity, anti-racism, and active approaches to address social, economic, political, historical, and environmental injustices. It is our professional responsibility to address systems of oppression, as these are the root causes of health inequities.
