Code of Conduct

Both Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson University Hospital are committed to providing state-of-the-art care to our patients and community, and to do so in an ethical and legal manner. To demonstrate our commitment to excellence and integrity, we have developed a Code of Conduct, which is shared with all employees at the time they are hired. The Code emphasizes our values of ethical behavior and fair practices.

All employees are expected to read and understand the Code. However, the Code cannot address all situations. Questions about organizational practices or actions of individuals that raise concern should be directed to your supervisor or to the Compliance Officer. The University and the Hospital have a non-retaliation policy, so any concern brought to the attention of management or the Compliance Office will be handled confidentially and without repercussion to the employee.

Questions about the Code or the Compliance Program in general should be directed to the appropriate Compliance Officer: University Compliance Officer at 215-503-0762 and Hospital Compliance Officer at 215-955-4177 or via ComplyLine (1-888-5COMPLY).
