In the next issue of OHA Today, the Ontario Hospital Association (OHA) will be launching Going Green!, a regular column that will showcase Ontario hospitals that have successfully reduced their environmental impact.
Currently, there are over 90 Green Hospital Champion Fund (GHCF) environmental audits firmly underway. It’s clear that hospitals are very much focused on supporting environmental sustainability and the cost-savings “going green” provides. It’s time to recognize and share these successes.
If your hospital has recently increased its energy efficiency, found a new way to increase waste diversion, or successfully implemented a sustainability program, the OHA wants to hear about it. Send an email to green@oha.com to share your organization’s story.
Don’t forget to check out the upcoming Green Health Care Conference and the Green Health Care Awards at HealthAchieve 2011.
