Ramsay Health Care

GMS is pleased to be the public relations company of choice for Ramsay Health Care - Australia’s largest private hospital operator.

Ramsay Health Care was established in 1964 and has since grown to an impressive sixty-five hospitals across the country. The group has also expanded globally with thirty-three hospitals across both the United Kingdom and Indonesia.

The organisation prides itself on offering state of the art training and research programmes for graduates and has a strong reputation of hiring leading surgeons and nurses within their field.

Gray Media Services has been contracted to provide all manner of public relations services  for Ramsay Health Care working closely with its marketing department to assist with both internal and external communications needs.

St Andrew’s War Memorial Hospital

GMS has worked closely with the hospital’s marketing department creating, guiding, advising and implementing public relations, marketing and advertising campaigns.

GMS created from scratch a public relations campaign that consistently produced excellent positive media coverage for the hospital in many major publications.

In 2008 this culminated with the incredible success of Channel 9's 60 Minutes story about Tourettes patient Bianca Saez who underwent a life changing operation at St Andrew's.

This was then followed by a 90 minute special edition of Domestic Blitz - billed as the biggest renovation project ever undertaken for Australian TV - on the same network and that tugged at the heart strings of every Australian.

GMS was also responsible for creating a marketing plan for the Director of Nursing at St Andrew’s Hospital to help increase the hospital’s profile and improve recruitment levels. This was so successful that the hospital had a waiting list of nurses wanting to work there.

GMS also helped the hospital organise major publicity and fund raising campaigns such as the 50th Anniversary celebrations in 2008.

Australian Private Hospitals Association (APHA)

Gray Media Services was chosen in 2009 to provide editorial and copywriting services for the APHA’s annual national congress in Melbourne.

A number of high profile key note speakers presented at this industry essential event attended by several hundred delegates. Gray Media Services ensured that articles on each speaker appeared in the industry bible, the Private Hospital Magazine, and were written in a user friendly, informative and factual way to guide delegates at the conference.

Gray Media Services is very proud of the work it has done to date with APHA and looks forward to a long and happy relationship with this significant organisation.

Bay Audio

Bay Audio is one of Australia and New Zealand’s leading hearing health companies. It was founded in New Zealand in 1993 and launched in Australia in 2007 where it is continuing to expand across all states.

Gray Media Services is very proud to handle all matters of public relations and media, nationwide, for this dynamic and growing company.

CHEM

GMS is looking after all public relations matters for new business, Company Health Events Management Pty Ltd (Chem).

Launched in November last year, the organisation is a brand new concept that aims to take the pain and expense out of companies having to plan their own corporate sporting events or programmes.

Managing Director of Chem, Emily Davies, has an extensive background in events management and is herself a triathalete and is looking to see major corporates re think how they approach building team spirit and a healthy work environment.

GMS has been chosen to help promote Chem in Australia as the company corporates can rely on to help create a good work, life, health and fun balance for all their employees.

BelloAlito

BelloAlito, which translates from Italian to English as ‘beautiful breath’, is a newly formed Brisbane based company that helps parents to more effectively manage their children’s asthma needs and Gray Media Services is proud to be the PR company of choice for this worthwhile new brand.

The developer and distributor of the MyAsthma Bag, BelloAlito director Alita Howlett, originally developed the idea for both the brand and the innovative tool after searching for a way to manage her own daughter’s asthma.

The change in her daughter’s health following using the MyAsthma Bag were incredible and GMS will now be working with BelloAlito to take this highly beneficial product to the Australian market, providing every family and asthma sufferer with the highest standard of asthma management storage and communication in the country.
