Description

Sustainable Healthcare sets out a vision for medical care that is both high-quality and sustainable. This book explores how healthcare can play a key role in addressing major challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and loss of biodiversity. By examining the relevance of sustainability in healthcare, the authors consider how to create low-carbon care pathways, manage waste, and make death and dying more sustainable. The book also provides case studies and resources for further information and action, making it a practical guide for healthcare professionals, managers, and students. With its clear ideas on critical thinking, scientific evidence, and practical suggestions, Sustainable Healthcare offers a valuable contribution to the debate on how healthcare can be made more sustainable for all.
