Do the Right Thing

As we conduct business at Sunrise Medical within a framework of internal policies, professional standards, laws and regulations, we also acknowledge that these do not govern all types of behavior we encounter in our daily business dealings. As a result, we also have a Business Code of Conduct for all Sunrise Medical Associates (all Sunrise Medical employees, contractors, and Board of Directors) called Do The Right Thing.

This Code is based upon our company mission statement and values and has been created to serve as a roadmap we can all follow to strengthen the company's ethical climate and to provide basic guidelines for situations when we are not always sure how to act. By plotting a path along the Sunrise Medical values, Do The Right Thing takes our business to the highest level by putting our values into action in support of fair, correct, accurate business processes.
