We, the Emergency Support Team, state our commitment to better the Washington University community.

By responding twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, we will, without compensation, contribute to the protection and promotion of general well being on our campus. In addition to our daily services, we will educate individuals and groups in CPR and Standard First Aid to increase effective handling of accidental injuries or sudden onset illnesses. In the event of a campus disaster, we will install a central medical response station.

We understand that our privilege to serve Washington University in the above ways results from respect and trust granted to us by that community. As a result, we, as individual members of the Team, will embody certain ideals that preserve our reputation as an organization. We will maintain the dignity and confidentiality of any and all persons who become our patients. We will, at all times, be mindful that our conduct reflects on the perceived competence of the entire Team. We will demonstrate dedication towards EST's cause through membership opportunities. We will, within the team, recognize and appreciate diverse styles of leadership and encourage the development of a confident and compassionate presence in all medics. Finally, we will fuel the future growth of our Team by seeking to recruit individuals with such ideals in the most fair and unbiased way possible.

Ultimately, in keeping with the vision of past members who created and evolved the organization we now represent, we will seek to expand and perpetuate a unified campus population in which students actively and voluntarily help fellow students.
