Our Core Values and Beliefs

	WE BELIEVE that growth and development is a life long process. Each life stage has its own set of challenges and its own contribution. We honor the heritage and legacy that we have received and that we experience with each community member. We support the flow of life through a great sense of spiritual love that reflects the mission of the Coeur d’Alene Homes family and supporting faith communities.
	WE BELIEVE that a healthy community brings healing and renewal, either directly or indirectly, to all who encounter the community.
	WE BELIEVE in the sanctity of life, personal uniqueness and individuality.
	WE BELIEVE that it takes the efforts of a caring team to maximize an individual’s strengths, respect and choices.
	WE BELIEVE that each resident’s family is an important part of the community team and therefore integral in the care and planning coordination.
	WE BELIEVE that each person regardless of illness or disease is capable of growth, development and an enriched life.
	WE BELIEVE that support and well being in a community takes a dedicated care team who follow the guiding principles of kindness, respect and compassion in their listening and doing.
	WE BELIEVE that standards of excellence are only as good as the staff supporting those standards. To that end, we select staff members who respect the Core Values of Coeur d’Alene Homes and understand there is no substitute for excellence and no excuse for mediocrity.
	WE BELIEVE that caring for your loved one is a sacred honor entrusted to Coeur d’Alene Homes. An honor and trust we are committed to keeping.
