As part of our sustainability commitments, we understand that reducing the environmental impact of healthcare and supporting others to do the same is vital for people and planet health. 🌍 💙 Healthcare – as well as being part of the solution – is also part of the problem. The way in which modern healthcare is delivered can impact the environment through emissions, pollution, resource consumption, and waste. And our health is fundamentally dependent on the health of the planet. Simple things such as the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink, as well as the environments in which we live and work, all have an impact on our health. Our Health and Environmental Insights Team, Clare Scully, PhD, Ian Culligan, and Rachel Donnison, want to inspire and support healthcare colleagues who are looking to reduce the environmental impact of care. They’ve worked with our global clinical teams to develop five sustainable healthcare toolkits to kickstart sustainability projects across healthcare settings, without compromising on quality or outcomes. You can download all five documents via the link below: https://lnkd.in/erS__ynP #HealthyPeopleHealthyPlanet #SustainableHealthcare

🌿 Sustainability in Healthcare: Overcoming Whipsawing Commitments 🌿 "Whipsawing Sustainability Commitments" challenge healthcare organizations by forcing a temporary step back from sustainability goals due to economic or political pressures. This can lead to underinvestment in climate initiatives and reputational risks. As leaders in healthcare, we must: Embed Sustainability: Integrate it into our core business strategy to withstand external pressures. Engage Stakeholders: Build a shared sustainable vision with our community. Innovate Financing: Develop new financing models for sustainability projects. Be Transparent: Communicate openly about our sustainability journey. Collaborate: Partner with others to strengthen our sustainability impact. By adopting these strategies, we can ensure our sustainability efforts are resilient, maintaining our commitment to a healthier planet alongside our economic goals. #Sustainability #Healthcare #ClimateAction
