Breakfast Session:
Sustainable Hospitals
Wednesday, October 19
8-9 a.m.
Hosted by the High Performance Hospitals Partnership, A BetterBricks Initiative
Driven by increasing costs and shrinking reimbursements for patient
care, hospitals are looking deeper for opportunities to control
or even reduce costs. Adopting measures to increase a hospital's
energy efficiency is one strategy. But what's the best overall strategic
approach for achieving greater energy-efficiency while enhancing
mission critical goals such as patient quality of care and staff
retention?
Hosted by Jennifer Stout of the High Performance Hospital Partnership,
a BetterBricks Initiative, the session covered:
- An introduction to the High Performance Hospital Partnership
- Hospitals that are taking a leadership role in strategic energy management
- The primary challenges of achieving long-term energy efficiency improvements in hospitals
- Differences between tactical and strategic approaches to energy management
- Information, research, and services needed to address these challenges
- Ways organizations and individuals can work together to achieve shared goals
