Professional Practice Model

Interprofessional Relationship-Based Care Practice Model at McHenry Hospital

Anchored by our Northwestern Medicine values and supported by the tenets of relationship-based care, our Interprofessional Practice Model guides us in demonstrating excellence in nursing practice, exemplary quality outcomes, and an environment that fosters shared leadership and decision making. Northwestern Medicine nurses create a caring and healing experience through interprofessional collaboration, a commitment to quality and safety, and the use of the most current and innovative approaches available.

We commit to building relationships through caring for our communities, our patients and their loved ones, each other and ourselves while holding true to the Northwestern Medicine values of keeping patients first, integrity, teamwork and excellence.
