→Behavior Examples: Honesty, Principle, Sincerity, Virtue, Candor
Examples of Integrity:
“When Malik realized a patient’s chart included outdated medication info, he didn’t just update it—he called the provider directly to verify changes and notified the rest of the team to prevent any confusion or risk.”
COMPASSION: We care about other’s needs.
→Behavior Examples: Benevolence, Empathy, Grace, Humanity, Kindness, Mercy

→Behavior Examples: Empathy, Assistance, Courtesy, Compassion, Value, Understanding, Listening
