Sustainable development

" Quality of care must not be achieved at the expense of the environment".

Extract from a speech by the Ministry of Health and Sport on 27 October 2009

Our commitment to sustainable development (in 2009) marks our desire to make the hospital's operations part of a long-term approach, with a focus on its environmental, economic, social and societal impacts.

With this in mind, the hospital has set up a sustainable development officer and a multi-professional sustainable development committee, enabling it to take daily action in line with the four priorities of Almaviva Santé's sustainable development policy:

The respect and effective implementation of patients' rights must now be accompanied by an ethical reflection on our everyday actions and a vision of our responsibility towards future generations.

Area 1: Social responsibility

• Ensuring respect for patients' fundamental rights
• Mobilise professionals around an ethical approach
• Gathering the satisfaction of internal and external stakeholders
• Promoting sustainable development among the various stakeholders

Area 2: Social responsibility

• Promoting access to employment and professional integration
• Developing quality of life at work and improving working conditions
• Developing the occupational risk prevention approach

AXIS 3: Environmental responsibility

• Controlling energy consumption
• Pursue the waste reduction policy
• Comply with sustainable development standards in the construction and renovation of buildings
• Implement and develop sustainable development indicators

Axis 4: Economic responsibility

• Ensure reliable economic management
• Encourage eco-responsible purchasing by integrating environmental criteria
• Limiting the impact of deliveries (grouping orders)
