Value-based nursing practices play a vital role in improving healthcare outcomes by promoting patient-centered care, ethical decision-making, and professional competence. However, limited studies have examined these practices in institutional healthcare settings such as the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA). This study evaluated the extent of value-based nursing practices and their impact on healthcare outcomes at the Philippine National Police Academy, serving as the basis for a strategic development plan. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed involving nursing personnel, healthcare staff, and selected healthcare recipients at PNPA. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measuring six domains of value-based nursing practices: caring and compassion, professional competence, respect for human dignity and rights, accountability and integrity, collaborative practice and teamwork, and commitment to service excellence. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation were used to analyze the data. Findings revealed that value-based nursing practices were highly observed across all domains, with accountability and integrity receiving the highest mean score (M = 4.50). Perceived healthcare outcomes were also rated high (M = 4.39), indicating positive patient satisfaction, quality of care, and overall well-being. A strong positive and significant relationship was found between value-based nursing practices and healthcare outcomes (r = 0.918, p < 0.05), suggesting that improved value-based practices contribute to enhanced healthcare delivery. The study concludes that value-based nursing practices significantly influence healthcare outcomes in PNPA. The findings support the development of a strategic plan focusing on continuous training, ethical leadership, and collaborative care to strengthen value-based nursing and improve healthcare delivery in institutional settings.
