Clinician's Roundtable 'Green' Resources for Smaller-Scale Medical Institutions
Guest: Ted Schettler, MD, MPH
Guest: Gary Cohen
As society progresses toward greater levels of environmental sustainability, the healthcare industry will play a leading role. From major public institutions to smaller private practices, every contribution matters. How can solo practitioners incorporate these projects into their practice, and what are the pervasive benefits, from a business standpoint and beyond? Gary Cohen, co-executive director of Health Care Without Harm, an international campaign in support of environmentally responsible health care, and Dr. Ted Schettler, science director of the Science and Environmental Health Network, and science advisor to Health Care Without Harm, suggest that as healthcare providers, we can even lend credibility to the 'green' movement simply by participating within our communities. They share their expertise and tips for your practice with host Dr. Mark Nolan Hill.
