Sustainability at the Royal United Hospitals (RUH)
Tue 11 July 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm BST
In a week where we celebrated the 75th Birthday of the NHS, is there a cleaner, greener model of healthcare that might ensure its survival? The latest talk from our World Affairs strand covers sustainable practices at the Royal United Hospitals in Bath (RUH).
Examining frameworks such as the NHS England Long-term Plan and Greener NHS, and discussing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from medical gases, collaborations with organisations like WECA, best practices exemplified by the Dyson Cancer Centre, barriers to decarbonisation, and future sustainability projects, this is a subject that none of us can afford to ignore!
