Luana Sponsor Team Code of Ethics

On October 13th our Sponsor Team met to develop our team's code of ethics. According to the Eden Alternative Path to Mastery, a code of ethics is "a code of conduct (or ground rules) that teaches us ho to behave towards each other. It captures how people interacting with each other have agreed to behave." The reasons that each team should develop their own code of ethics were stated by the Path to Mastery as "to define acceptable behaviors; to shift accountability away from the manager or team leader and into the team; to promote high standards of care; to provide a benchmark for staff to use for self evaluation; and to establish a framework for behavior and responsibilities".

The following is the Sponsor Team's code of ethics:

1. We promise to share our Luana successes, information and progress with staff, residents and families.

2. We are role models of Luana offering a positive and enthusiastic influence at Hale Makua Health Services, living out the Eden Golden Rule (“As management does unto staff, so shall staff do unto residents”.

3. We are open to new ideas.

4. Decisions are based on our Luana Mission statement (“Hale Makua will be a self-sustaining long-term care village that is inviting, lively, inter-generational, educational, and a valued part of the journey of life.”)

5. We use open, honest and respectful communication at all times.

6. We respect one another, listen to each other, and in times of disagreement, attack the problem and not the person.

7. We unconditionally accept one another, treating each other as equals regardless of job titles.

8. We recognize true success is possible when everyone pulls their weight and is actively engaged in the Luana journey.

9. We celebrate our successes.

10. We strive to understand each other’s perspective.
