Nursing Philosophy

Cookeville Regional Medical Center’s philosophy of nursing ties directly to the organizational mission and values statements of “Building Healthier Comminutes” and “Exceptional Care to Every Patient Every Day”.

Our foundation is holistic care through partnership with patients and families. We base our care on empathy, compassion, and respect. It is our charge to comfort, advocate, and care for the vulnerable, the weak, and the sick.

We pride ourselves on being engaged at the highest level of professionalism, to treat all with dignity as individuals, and respect others regardless of position as patient, family, peer, or patient team member at all times within a safe environment.

We will embrace continuous learning to improve our knowledge, skills and abilities to provide care, while exceeding the minimum expectations.

All of these are done through mutual support and without prejudice or personal bias.
