Culture at Ramsay Health Care

Frequent friction within the team, mostly stemming from lack of staff and related stress.

Culture is surprising good considering the work load and pressure daily on the floor looking after patients. Hierarchy seems quite sensible mostly except for the very obvious show of position during our graduate induction. Doctors to one side (fully catered and pampered to) and nurses to the other side with not so much as a bottle of water or any catering. Please to say this has improved but was a disappointing start and almost caused me to walk about then and there.

People are relaxed and pretty sensible about other's culture and origines. The relationship between us is pretty friendly and it goes beyond the office ours.

Teamwork and communication are amazing, everyone is always willing to listen and problem-solve together. As a graduate, I felt encouraged and safe to speak up.

In my work place everyone communicates very well with each other and always ready to help each other.

In the clinical setting (operating theatre) we have a terrible work culture.

I felt very welcome from day one And I feel comfortable that I can ask almost any one of my colleagues for help advice or guidance Everyone is very kind and welcoming It is a lovely environment and I look forward to going to work

I feel that the office has a very formal setting and there isn't much opportunity to socialise with people outside of my team. There is a clear hierarchy in the company.

Everyone knows the bosses only care about money and the numbers. The pts even know that... The NUM does not help on the floor and is disrespectful. Everyone keeps quitting and mistakes are made by new staff because there is no training, education or support for them. No one wants to be at work and Everyone hates it. It's sad and disheartening

We have a great team within the ward. But executive let us down

Staff are friends with each other. Some wards have a social club while others don't. Some wards have a group chat online to facilitate shift swaps etc while others don't. As an employee you are free to socialise outside of work with your colleagues, if that is what you want.

People within my team are very helpful and engaging with my work.

Teamwork Alot of fun times especially at the end of the evening shifts

The structure can be slightly confusing sometimes, as there is a cross-over of the head office and global office - especially as when I first came into this role, I was told I had a different manager to the one I actually report to. In the office, we generally have a good time. I can reach out to other departments whenever I need to, and they are always very helpful. Compared to the UK, the executive board is a lot harder to reach out to, for example I have never met the Australia CEO (this isn't necessarily a bad thing, just very different to the UK business and the global business). My team has monthly lunch n learns, which is great as we hear about what has been going on in the team and the wider business. It is an opportunity to meet others in the team in person and catch up.

My department are very close due to our size, we often socialize outside of work. Our DCS is very accessible and approachable. Whilst having a small team is a positive the majority of the time, it does have its limitations and can create issues.

Bullying from experienced nurses, unsafe medication administration practices, poor staff-patient ratios. Management only focusing on profits over staff/patient safety. Minimal social interaction between staff out-of-hours. often poor cooperation from senior management in addressing staff shortages and safety issues

The physiotherapy culture is not good. The manager is stress and often unload it on the staff. Very short staff with the physiotherapy team, has to often delegate most of patients to physiotherapy assistant, which increases their caseload and stress. The culture between the nursing team in orthopaedic ward is fantastic.

It has a good culture but more training for emergencies would be better

Very supportive at every face of personal and professional life.

Great good teamwork
