Our Mission

As employees of Fadness Hospital we promise to give patients the highest quality health care, and patients expect that we keep information about their health confidential, sharing it only with people who need the information to do their jobs. Confidentiality and patient privacy has been part of our mission since we started.

In order to ensure that we protect our patients, we are implementing a mandatory training, once a quarter, to fully inform and train all employees on future developments.
