The Royal Arch Masonic Home (RAMH), a publicly-funded complex-care facility operating since 1982, strives to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment for all residents within their 151-bed site in Vancouver, BC. Their mission is to deliver an effective and efficient continuum of health care and support services to a population of older adults who require residential care.
