Hospital Healthcare Europe is delighted to announce the launch of its new sustainability content zone and accompanying newsletter.
With pressure on the NHS to reduce its carbon footprint and progress towards net zero targets, sustainable healthcare is becoming an increasingly important consideration for clinicians and their teams in terms of greener prescribing, reusing and recycling medical devices, reducing waste and more.
Aligning with these aims, the new sustainability zone has been launched as part of the brand‘s commitment to support best practice and patient outcomes in secondary care.
Via the new sustainability zone, Hospital Healthcare Europe will curate innovative case studies highlighting pioneering initiatives at UK hospitals; overviews of novel research into sustainable practices of the future; and analyses of newly published guidelines, toolkits and reports to encourage clinicians and their teams to embrace positive change and support them in achieving individual, organisational and national goals.
All content is underpinned by first-hand insights from a dedicated and ever-expanding group of expert clinical contributors who have their finger on the pulse of the latest trends and innovations.
Recent examples include an exemplar case study on sustainable infection prevention and control at Great Western Hospital in Swindon, an overview of a new study addressing the environmental impact of inhalers, and the latest views on remanufacturing single-use medical devices, with insights from hospitals in England and France.
Alongside the zone, a new quarterly sustainability newsletter will be launched, delivering all the latest sustainability content into subscribers‘ inboxes in a convenient round-up to keep them abreast of the latest developments that can support and inspire their practice.
The inaugural sustainability newsletter will be circulated on Thursday, 20 February 2025, so sign up now to receive this as well as future newsletter bulletins and clinical round-ups.
As the healthcare sustainability agenda is intertwined with the evolution and adoption of technology within the healthcare landscape, and Hospital Healthcare Europe has also launched a health technology content zone.
This zone showcases examples of how technological advances can offer solutions to the challenges faced in day-to-day practice, allowing clinicians and their teams to improve efficiencies, respond to unmet patient need and optimise patient care and outcomes in their own hospitals and beyond.
