Our Vision and Values

The Brown University Health Promise

As we build our new identity as Brown University Health, we were inspired by the oaths and pledges that physicians and nurses have long taken as they enter their new roles, swearing to care for the sick and uphold the highest standards of their professions. 

For our patients and families—and our more than 20,000 employees—we crafted our own promise, one that captures our sense of pride and purpose, while making room for all roles and all contributions. It’s a promise we make to our patients, and to each other.
