Southwest Kidney Institute Values

Southwest Kidney Institute exists for one reason only; to care for patients with kidney disease better than anyone else.

  • We believe in engaging and empowering patients through continuous education. Patients who are well-informed and participate in their care live longer, healthier lives.
  • We treat everyone with dignity and respect. Individuals who are treated with respect respond by giving their best.
  • Each day we deliver our best efforts in all we do, keeping our mission in mind and acknowledge that we all provide an integral role in our “continuum of caring...” model.
  • We feel a sense of importance on all matters related to our patients and each other. We own problems and we are always responsive.
  • We require honesty and integrity in everything we do.
  • We communicate effectively to keep all stakeholders informed.
  • We make realistic commitments and then live up to them.
  • We encourage individuals to constantly look for ways to improve themselves and processes. We fully support "good mistakes" (best effort, bad result) and are intolerant of "bad mistakes" (sloppiness or lack of effort).
  • We manage the company's resources carefully. We understand that a successful company is able to provide more resources to our patients and more opportunities for us.
  • We believe a fun, positive and professional environment results in better outcomes for our patients, us and our company.
