Ramsay Health Care Celebrates 50 Years

Jan 01, 2014

In 1964, Paul Ramsay, founder and Chairman of Ramsay Health Care, purchased a guesthouse called Warrina House on Sydney's North Shore and converted it into a psychiatric hospital in the earliest days of the private hospital industry in Australia. Today, Ramsay Health Care is one of the world's largest private hospital operators with over 150 hospitals located across five countries – Australia, England, France, Indonesia and Malaysia – employing more than 30,000 people and admitting over 1.4 million patients each year.

From humble beginnings in Sydney, Australia to the global success story it is today, Ramsay Health Care has remained focused on operating its business according to The Ramsay Way philosophy: "People caring for People". In 2014, Ramsay Health Care celebrates 50 years of People caring for People.
