Values

HHG is committed to the following values in all of our interactions with clients, staff, patients, families, government agencies, and everyone with whom we come in contact.

Community

To develop a community service that values human dignity, respects human diversity and enhances the physical, mental and the general public.

Choice

To support individuals in the pursuit of their dreams to develop their individual potential. To discourage the creation of artificial barriers and overcome those barriers where they exist. To treat every individual with respect and honor and respect their choices.

Excellence

To develop and maintain the highest possible standards, and to ensure that all programs and services meet the needs and expectations of our patients.

Flexibility

To encourage creative and innovative ideas and new approaches to human services that respond to the various and unique needs of individuals, families, communities, counties, and agencies.

Consumer and Family Uniqueness and Strengths

To recognize that the needs and expectations of patients may be different and unique than those of their families, and to plan for and be aware of that throughout the delivery of services, development, and monitoring processes.

Cultural Diversity

To recognize that culture provides a general design for living and patterns that are reflected in behaviors, and that a competent agency acknowledges, adjusts to and accepts the dynamics of cultural force; and ensures that services are provided by individuals who have the skills to recognize and respect behavior, ideas, attitudes, cultural beliefs and practices of all patients, especially minorities and under-served groups of people.

Community-Based

To acknowledge the wide diversity of communities in which all people live and to support and provide services in the patient's community of choice; to offer services in the least restrictive and coercive manner, and in the most natural setting. To assist each person in living, working, learning and enjoying leisure activities in the community.
