Discovery of untreated medical waste at a California landfill raises concerns about responsible waste management practices at health care facilities across nation. A two-day summit May 14-15 will highlight healthcare's environmental leaders, address growing concerns about pharmaceutical waste management, and discuss the future of environmentally responsible healthcare.
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) May 1, 2007 -- Discovery of untreated medical waste at a California landfill raises concerns about responsible waste management practices at health care facilities across nation. A two-day summit May 14-15 will highlight healthcare's environmental leaders, address growing concerns about pharmaceutical waste management, and discuss the future of environmentally responsible healthcare.
What: Hospitals for a Healthy Environment (H2E) will hold a special two-day summit addressing waste management practices and recognizing the nation's top hospitals for environmental practices.
When: May 14-15, 2007
Where: Marriott Minneapolis City Center Hotel, Minneapolis, MN
Web site: www.h2e-online.com
The issue of proper waste management in the health care sector takes center stage as California officials investigate how untreated medical waste found its way to a local landfill seven times over a two-week period.
Health care leaders, advocacy organizations, and government administrators will gather on May 14-15, 2007 in Minneapolis at the 2007 H2E Environmental Excellence Summit to learn from waste management experts and honor recipients of the H2E Environmental Excellence Awards. These awards include the nation's most prestigious marks of innovation in environmentally responsible health care and waste management.
Responsible management of regulated medical waste, as well as pharmaceutical and other hazardous wastes, is a top concern for health care managers. All Environmental Leadership Award winners are recycling at least 25 percent of their solid waste and have eliminated mercury from their facilities. According to a 2005 American Hospital Association survey, 97.3 percent of hospital respondents across the country are aware of the problem with mercury and have taken steps to address the issue.
The event will also featured a day-long Pharmaceutical Waste Management Workshop that will help health care institutions properly identify, reduce, and handle pharmaceutical waste, comply with the law, and reduce environmental and health impacts.
In total, the conference will examine the environmental and waste management accomplishments of more than 140 health care facilities, partner organizations, and others.
