CORE VALUES
WINNING: Wildland Medics are winners. We don’t make excuses. We take ownership of everything in our world and take the necessary actions to find solutions. As winners, we are skilled, competent, situationally aware, and take initiative in order to build positive momentum for ourselves and those we lead to victory.
IMPACT: We chose emergency care to be a positive force for good when people are feeling their worst. We rise above the chaos and ambiguity of any situation; on and off the line. Our actions, words, behavior, and attitude affect everything and everyone around us.
LEADERSHIP: We lead and influence others by providing purpose, direction, inspiration, and motivation through discipline, example, experience, humility, and confidence. It is a delicate balancing act that is best served by building strong relationships with those around us, and most importantly, taking ownership of everything in our lives.
DISCIPLINE: Discipline is the path to intelligence, freedom, and happiness. It requires strength, demands fortitude, and sometimes every ounce of our will. We prepare ourselves to perform at our best level in all aspects of our lives because the patient we treat tomorrow deserves the very best from us today.
MASTERY: As medical professionals, we have a tremendous responsibility to sharpen our skills while continuing to develop new ones so that we are always ready for any call, anytime, anywhere, to consistently deliver the highest quality patient care.
EDUCATION: Proficiency leads to competence. Competence Leads to confidence. We believe in humbly but aggressively fulfilling our obligation to learn for ourselves and train others in order to better the world around us.
DEDICATION: We believe in being loyal to ourselves, team mates, and our patients by always learning and getting better every day. Separation is in the preparation.
INTEGRITY : We believe in doing what is right in word and in action. By following these core values we improve ourselves not only as medical professionals, but as humans, in every aspect of our lives.
COURAGE: We believe that courage is not the absence of fear, but moving forward in-spite of it. Fear dissolves and courage grows as we dedicate ourselves to make a positive impact every day, gain mastery of ourselves and our skills, build discipline, and live with integrity.
