A Culture of Caring

 

 
Text Box: “May we have eyes to see those who are rendered invisible and excluded, open hearts to reach out and include them, loving hands to heal them, and in the process heal ourselves.” Jack McConnell, MD, Founder, Volunteers in Medicine

The BVMI Healthcare Center is guided by the Culture of Caring philosophy .

 

The Culture of Caring is based on an ethical standard in medicine that was practiced long ago and we believe should be embraced again. We believe that how people are treated during a visit to BVMI’s Healthcare Center is as important as the medical care they receive.

 

The Culture of Caring recognizes the strengths of those in need and respects their dignity. “We seek to heal not only physical illnesses, but also the injury caused by bias, prejudice and indifference”.
