"What is life... It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset." (Crowfoot Blackfoot warrior and orator)
Sustainable Hospitals
Provides technical support to the healthcare industry for selecting products and work practices that eliminate or reduce occupational and environmental hazards, maintain quality patient care and contain costs. We support and collaborate with healthcare institutions, clinicians, unions representing healthcare practitioners, students, and government, as well as environmental and healthcare advocacy groups.
The premise of the SHP is a team-based approach that integrates pollution prevention with occupational safety and health results in more sound and appropriate solutions. This is in response to the observation that pollution prevention efforts can inadvertently introduce new occupation safety and health problems, and vice versa.
