Children’s Nebraska believes that every member of our team is equally important, and we strive to foster an environment that welcomes and values everyone. We are proud to share our organizational statement on diversity and inclusion, which was developed in collaboration with members of Children’s Employee Resource Groups (ERGs).
Our Promise to Embrace Diversity and Inclusion
Children’s focuses on a People First culture, where we embrace and value the unique strengths and differences of people. We cultivate an inclusive environment of respect and trust where we all belong—team members, patients, families, students, partners and community members. We foster a culture of belonging through actions and words, policies and procedures, education and engagement.
ICARE Values for Everyone
Innovation, Collaboration, Accountability, Respect, Excellence
Respect for all regardless of the differences
Value and celebrate diversity
Listen to understand
Embrace the whole person
Advocate for others
Children’s is committed to continuous improvement on this journey to be excellent and respectful in all our relationships. We will honor and learn from the diverse traits and experiences of every person we encounter. We will view mistakes as important opportunities for learning and growth.
Whether a team member, patient, family member, student, partner or community member, we see you. We value you. We care about you. You are welcome here, and you belong.
Celebrating Our Team Members
As part of our dedication to fostering equity and inclusion, Children’s has Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) focused on unique experiences. Our ERGs are open to everyone, and each group has its own mission, tasks and community goals.
