Culture

Ramsay Health Care differentiates itself from other hospital operators through decentralised management and our excellent relationship with staff and doctors. Our hospitals are led by competent and experienced managers renowned for having an “open door ” policy and providing staff at all levels with career expansion, training and development opportunities. Our staff work in an environment that is receptive and flexible and they have the opportunity to shape the standards and quality of care. The Company is recognised for its commitment to staff through the fostering and development of a special culture known as “The Ramsay Way”.

“The Ramsay Way” recognises that staff are an integral part of the Organisation and seeks to provide staff with benefits, recognition and ongoing communication. In the last year, various policies and programs such as an organisation-wide parental leave policy, recognition of portability of entitlements, employment of a national staff development coordinator and the development of a national middle management training program, have been adopted by the Company in recognition of our most important resource - staff. All these strategies are seen to improve recruitment and retention of staff to the Company.
