The DBTH Way
The DBTH Way builds on the We Care values, bringing them to life in how we work together across wards, departments, and services.
It sets out what good looks like at DBTH – from supporting one another, to leading by example, to always improving what we do. It’s about doing things not just with care, but in the right way, every day. It sets out expectations for what colleagues can expect of one another, and what patients should see typified by Team DBTH:
We are:
- Kind
- Inclusive
