Culture at Ramsay Health Care

I think most of the culture is good - there is still quite a lot of the eat your young culture still involved from older nurses to grads.

Culture in my ward is great and the team is cooperative and suportive.

Great good teamwork

I believe each ward is different. I'm lucky now to be on a fabulous ward that's inclusive and supportive. However it wasn't always like that. As a grad I was rotated to a ward that was closed majorly of my rotation. This means I changed wards every shift and put in unstable situations. I was bullied and treated horrible by staff. I tried my best and if it wasn't for the ward I'm in now I would have left the company.

In office hours - multiple senior staff present and level 2 nurses on the floor and in the offices anum and then theatre NUMs as well

On shift people get on for the most part. Some tension between people but does not always show through. Outside of work I do not hear of people often socialising.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.
