Use Non-Toxic Cleaning Products

Many standard cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that can harm the environment (and even our bodies!). Consider asking the hospital/laboratory cleaning company to use green products or switch to one that does. 

E-Cards

For holidays, special events and birthdays, send e-cards instead of buying traditional cards and mailing invitations. Not only are e-cards fun and often humorous, they are more environmentally-friendly than sending out paper announcements that recipients tend to discard after reading.

Invest in Plants

Placing plants around your home and the hospital/laboratory reception can help to beautify your workspaces, uplift the overall atmosphere of your workplace, and reduce stress and anxiety for your workforce. Indoor greenery can boost oxygen levels and remove harmful pollutants such as carbon dioxide and formaldehyde. In fact, NASA research reveals that indoor plants reduce 87% of indoor air pollutants within 24 hours.

Eco-Friendly Food Choices

Encourage local first; organic for high consumption foods. When ordering lunch for a meeting, how about going vegetarian (or even vegan, if you dare)? Cutting down on meat can have a huge impact on the health of the planet.
