The NHS Constitution establishes six core values that underpin everything the NHS does. These values are not abstract ideals — they are practical expectations for how every NHS employee, from porters to consultants, should behave. For SJT, they provide a direct guide to what is considered "appropriate" professional conduct.
This lesson examines each value in depth, with scenario applications showing exactly how they translate into correct SJT answers.
| # | Value | Core idea |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Working together for patients | Collaboration and patient-centred teamwork |
| 2 | Respect and dignity | Treating every person with courtesy and respect |
| 3 | Commitment to quality of care | Striving for excellence and continuous improvement |
| 4 | Compassion | Responding with humanity and kindness |
| 5 | Improving lives | Working to improve health and wellbeing |
| 6 | Everyone counts | Inclusivity, equity, and fair use of resources |
