The American Society for Health Care Engineering recognized 70 healthcare facilities across 13 health systems for significantly reducing their energy use and emissions.
ASHE, a professional membership group of the American Hospital Association, gives Sustainability Champions Awards, its highest distinction, to organizations that demonstrate strong leadership in reducing healthcare’s environmental footprint and using saved resources to support patient care, according to a July 13 association news release. The winners represent 1.4% of facilities participating in the Energy to Care Program, which currently includes more than 4,900 facilities.
