Why Trust Matters in Healthcare Technology: Our Values at Streets Heaver
What are our Values?
1. Give a S.H.I.T.
2. Get S.H.I.T. done
3. Blow S.H.I.T. up
4. Be the S.H.I.T.
Trust at the Heart of Everything We Do
At 2am, when a clinician needs instant access to patient records, there’s no room for uncertainty.
The system either works, or it doesn’t…and patient care depends on it.
That’s the reality of healthcare technology. Trust isn’t a nice‑to‑have. It’s essential.
Healthcare organisations depend on digital systems every day to support patient care, clinical workflows, and critical decision-making. With that level of responsibility, more than technical expertise is required. It demands integrity, accountability, and a long‑term commitment to reliability, especially when things don’t go to plan.
At Streets Heaver, trust has been at the heart of everything we do since day one.
From Family Run Business to Trusted Healthcare Technology Partner
Streets Heaver began as a local, family‑run business, built on strong relationships and a simple principle: always do the right thing.
Those early foundations shaped how we work.
People over process.
Relationships over transactions.
Long‑term partnerships over short‑term wins.
While we’ve grown significantly over the years, our core values haven’t changed. Today, supporting healthcare organisations across the UK and beyond with robust, reliable healthcare technology, but we still approach our work with the same care, honesty, and responsibility that defined us at the start.
Why Trust Is Critical in Healthcare Technology
Healthcare technology plays a vital role in delivering safe, effective care. Systems must be reliable, secure, and designed around real‑world clinical needs.
But what does trust actually look like in practice?
It’s software that works when it matters most.
It’s support that responds when pressure is high.
It’s a partner who’s still there years later, not just at go‑live.
Our customers rely on us to:
- Deliver dependable healthcare software
- Act transparently and honestly
- Take responsibility for what we build and support
- Invest in long‑term partnerships rather than short‑term fixes
Trust isn’t built through marketing claims. It’s built through consistency, accountability, and showing up year after year.

Staying True to Our Values as We Grow
Growth brings opportunity, and responsibility.
As we’ve evolved, we’ve been deliberate about staying true to our roots. Our values continue to guide how we make decisions, how we work with customers, and how we support our people.
That means listening closely.
Being honest about challenges.
Designing solutions that genuinely support healthcare delivery.
Focusing on sustainable outcomes (not shortcuts).
Committed to Our Community and Long‑Term Partnerships
We’re proud of our local heritage and the community that has supported us throughout our journey. Many of our customer relationships span years, and in some cases decades, reflecting trust built over time.
We take that trust seriously. It shows up in how we collaborate, how we support innovation, and how committed we are to being a dependable healthcare technology partner for the long term.
Where Our Core Values Come From
Our values didn’t come from a boardroom exercise. They’ve been shaped by real experiences, real people, and real partnerships over time.
So where did they actually come from?
In the short video, hear directly from our Managing Director, Benedict Heaver, on how these values were formed and why they continue to guide how we build, support, and partner across healthcare.
