00:00 We're only stood here because of lots and lots and lots of effort. And if anything exemplifies
00:07 Ramsey's purpose for people caring for people, it's the opening of this today. A facility
00:13 that brings capacity into the health system, but more importantly stats showing healthcare
00:18 delivering a different way, and as a representative in the future I would love to hold them forward
00:25 to.
00:26 So we're measuring a squat jump now, so if you go down to 90 degrees, lovely, and jump,
00:33 good, and keep jumping, keep going, lovely. Proper workout, and relax there.

01:11 I think it's really important for us to reflect on how our, you know, all our achievements
01:15 and to celebrate the opportunities which this new facility will provide us in supporting
01:19 our local healthcare system. The opening of this new hospital development will be of great
01:24 benefit to the local community in terms of the services that it provides and the employment
01:29 opportunities that it offers. The completion of this build is a culmination of the hard
01:33 work of so many people, and it's all made possible by just superb teamwork on so many
01:38 levels.
01:39 [Applause]
