New Impact Report highlights 60 years of caring for people, planet and community

November 14, 2024

Ramsay Health Care today released its 2024 Impact Report, showcasing a year of ambitious sustainability initiatives aimed at supporting healthier people, stronger communities and a thriving planet.

“Our people are making significant strides towards our Ramsay Cares sustainability goals,” Ramsay's Managing Director & Group CEO Craig McNally said.

“We have been focused on reducing our environmental footprint, enhancing patient care and supporting our employees' wellbeing.

“Importantly, we remain on track to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions across our value chain by 2040.”

Ramsay Australia CEO Carmel Monaghan added, “We’ve achieved many milestones this year thanks to our dedicated teams. For example, our rooftop solar rollout is gaining pace, so we have increased our target to install 10 megawatts of renewable energy projects across our sites by FY29.

“We’re also advancing the future of healthcare through the Ramsay Hospital Research Foundation which surpassed $25 million in grant funding this year, supporting more than 50 critical medical research projects since it launched in 2017.

“By trying to weave sustainability into everything we do, we are working towards a healthier future for everyone.”

Key highlights in the report include:

  • Ramsay globally reduced Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 23% in FY24 (from 2020 baseline) and remains on track for net zero emissions by 2040. Emissions from anaesthetic gas use dropped 11% from FY23.
  • Ramsay achieved its 50% gender diversity targets across the Board, global executive and senior leadership teams.
  • Ramsay worked with 60% of its suppliers (by spend) to complete independent sustainability assessments, which support these suppliers to achieve their own environmental and social goals.
  • Ramsay invested A$286 million in brownfield, greenfield and growth projects to increase healthcare access including new, sustainably designed facilities.
