Finalist – National Group Excellence Award 2023
Ryman has consistently been recognised in our People’s Choice Awards. The Ryman Healthcare model began over 35 years ago with the adage that it’s got to be “good enough for mum or dad”, and with five of its facilities taking out awards for this year, it’s clear they have achieved that goal. Kim Dawson – Village Manager from Ryman’s Keith Park Retirement Village commented “It’s this kind of acknowledgment that allows us to reflect and to know that everyone’s efforts have contributed to the result, the recognition makes it all worthwhile.”
