CMF’s Christian values can be summed up in Christ’s two great commandments (Luke 10:27). ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind‘ (Deuteronomy 6:5); and, ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.‘ (Leviticus 19:18)
As Christian healthcare professionals and students seeking to live and speak for Jesus Christ, we aim:
- To acknowledge, love and obey God as the Creator, Sustainer, and Lord of all life.
- To practise whole-person healthcare that addresses our patients’ physical, emotional and spiritual needs.
- To maintain the deepest respect for human life from its beginning to its end, including people who are unborn, elderly, and those living with disabilities.
- To serve our patients according to their healthcare needs without partiality or discrimination on any basis.
- To care sacrificially for the poor, vulnerable and marginalised.
- To uphold marriage between a man and a woman, marital faithfulness, and the family.
- To speak the truth, respect privacy, and safeguard our patients’ confidences.
- To put our patients first whilst fully accepting our duty to promote preventive medicine and public health.
- To deal honestly with our professional and administrative colleagues and to respect the governing authorities.
- To work constructively in scientific research and in training others for the benefit of individual patients and the advancement of healthcare throughout the world.
