Our Values
Our Values
Community inspired “Excellence of service.”
We have a collective mindset and foster a culture of belonging. We know the value of a warm smile and an attentive ear. We are dedicated to people and listen to understand. We value connection and our relationships with partners, patients and each other to collectively achieve the best shared outcomes.
Empathy through humility “Respectful authenticity.”
Every person matters. We are respectful, authentic and assured in our commitment to serving others. With an outward perception, we work to build an encouraging, caring and supportive environment where no single person is greater than the team. We recognise the potential in others and are driven to lead with empathy, insight and consideration.
Accountable responsibility “It's up to us.”
We have a radical ownership mentality and undertake to empower with clarity and transparency. We take accountability for the excellence of our individual work as well as what we contribute as a team; with a focus on optimal patient outcomes at all times. We take collective responsibility for our actions, together and are committed to honouring people by delivering excellence.
Collaborative Care "Team-based healthcare."
We carry the load together by building purposeful relationships grounded in a shared vision. We know when we come together we can achieve exceptional outcomes. We believe in the power of recognising one another’s strengths and listening with intent. We evolve together by stepping up and chipping in when it counts.
Commitment to Health Equity

The number of beds we aim to deliver in rural and peri urban South Africa.
Job Creation
1.5

R1m
P.A
SMMES produce up to R1 million in income per year for every R1 million invested in a hospital.
Amplifying Our Impact
Using our footprint to benefit all South Africans.
By advancing health equity, we're not just improving community health outcomes - like increasing life expectancy and reducing maternal and infant mortality rates - but also driving significant economic growth. Bringing critical acute care closer communities has a ripple effect: every hospital bed added creates 1.5 direct jobs, and each R1 million invested in a hospital can generate an equivalent annual income for local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMMEs). This approach doesn't only address immediate health needs; it fosters thriving, economically robust communities.
