Suppose you're applying for a radiographer job in the NHS or an organization that provides NHS services. In that case, you'll be asked to demonstrate the values of the NHS Constitution and how they would apply to your everyday work. The NHS has six values that all staff are expected to demonstrate, listed on the NHS health careers website. The interviewers ask this question to see that you have researched the NHS before your interview and that you can name at least one of the six values. However, you may be asked to name all six, so be prepared to answer all of them before your interview. The six core values in the NHS Constitution are:
1. Working together for patients
2. Respect and dignity
3. Commitment to quality of care
4. Compassion
5. Improving lives
6. Everyone counts

"I noticed on the NHS website there are six values that all staff are expected to demonstrate. Every value resonates with me, and that is what made me excited to apply to the NHS. The first value is the patients come first. All staff members work together for the patients while offering dignity and respect. These are a few of the values of the NHS, which I will demonstrate if chosen for the position."
